To evaluate the dosimetric and anatomical accuracy of RayStation-generated corrected cone-beam CT (cCBCT) and virtual CT (vCT) for adaptive radiotherapy (ART) in head and neck (H&N) cancer patients with significant anatomical cha...

In-vivo dosimetry in electron radiotherapy ensures accurate plan delivery and patient safety. In hypofractionated treatments such as Boom-Boom radiation (2 Gy in 2 fractions) for indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas, the use of...

Accurate dosimetry of low-energy proton beams (2–4 MeV) for radiobiological experiments is challenging due to beam modification in air. This study extends previous work on Gafchromic HD-V2 film dosimetry by quantitatively validat...

This study aims to illuminate how HyperSight CBCT compares to conventional CBCT and planning CT in terms of radiomic features, applying statistical methods such as the Kruskal-Wallis H Test and the Intra-Class Correlation Coeffic...

Abdominal compression in lung SBRT aims to reduce respiratory motion, but its benefit varies among patients and may cause discomfort or limited motion reduction. PET/CT, routinely acquired for lung cancer staging, provides high-r...

In comprehensive motion management (CMM), Elekta Unity MR-Linac uses cine-MRI to monitor intra-fraction target motion. Due to the lack of efficient tools to determine patient-specific treatment margin, an isotropic GTV-to-PTV mar...

The fundamental objective is to determine extent of microscopic tumor infiltration into normal skin tissue to accurately define skin cancer brachytherapy margins.

TheraSphere Global Dosimetry Steering Committee (DSC) defines five clinical scenarios for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using Yttrium-90 (Y-90) glass microsphere–based transarterial radioembolization (TARE), acc...

Photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) is recognized as a revolutionary technology for next-generation spectral imaging. However, spectral distortion and count loss induced by pulse pile-up effects (PPEs) at high X-ray fluxes...

This study aimed to evaluate Adapt LTE, a retrospective evaluation tool by Accuray to compare past helical treatment plans against original therapy goals.

In BNCT, 18F-BPA-PET evaluates boron drug distribution for treatment eligibility, but is rarely incorporated into treatment planning. A key limitation is differences in drug administration protocols between PET and BNCT, which ma...

Effective radiotherapy for upper abdominal tumors requires dose escalation but is limited by respiratory motion and the low gastrointestinal radiation tolerance. Current clinical motion management on conventional Linacs relies on...

Collimator orientation in single-isocenter multi-target (SIMT) SRS significantly impacts multileaf collimator (MLC) modulation and overall plan quality. We developed a machine learning (ML) framework to identify optimal collimato...

Cone-beam CT (CBCT) has rapidly expanded across diverse clinical applications, yet fleet-wide benchmarking of imaging performance remains challenging due to wide variation in acquisition hardware, reconstruction pipelines, and ve...

Low-energy electron (LEE) beams in the kilo-electronvolt (keV) range are expected to exhibit an increased relative biological effectiveness (RBE) due to their high linear energy transfer and limited penetration depth. Emerging la...

To develop a mechanistic extension of the classical Lethal and Potentially Lethal (LPL) model that explains oxygen-mediated ultra-high dose rate (FLASH) sparing without prescribing dose-rate–dependent radiosensitivity.

To predict achievable Gamma Knife (GK) radiosurgery plan quality and treatment time through analysis of geometric features from a large atlas of previously treated brain metastases.

To develop and validate an attention-based deep learning (DL) model to predict overall survival (OS) in patient with brain metastases (BM) using pre-treatment magnetic resonance image (MRI).

Deep learning models have shown promise for image-quality rating tasks, yet the visual cues they rely on are often difficult to interpret. Grad-CAM and related saliency methods are commonly used to visualize attribution, but thes...

Nuclear medicine is undergoing a paradigm shift to produce images in units of activity concentration, analogous to PET imaging. Quantitative SPECT imaging requires system calibrations. In 2024, we formally incorporated routine qu...

High-dose-rate interstitial brachytherapy (IB) is an effective treatment for gynecologic (GYN) malignancies but requires precise catheter placement, which can be challenging during transperineal and free-hand insertions. Augmente...

Foundation models (FMs) have demonstrated strong performance on challenging radiation therapy tasks such as automatic delineation, deformable image registration, and multimodal visual question answering (VQA). However, they are t...

Clinical trials require the extraction of specific metrics from DICOM plan datasets for protocol-driven data analysis. Because these metrics vary widely across trials, it has been difficult to develop an automated system capable...

Treatment planning system (TPS) beam modelling is identified as the largest cause of independent dosimetry audit failure. This study aims to develop and validate a universal beam model (UBM) specific to single-iso multi-target (S...
