Clinical commissioning of an adaptive radiotherapy platform: Results and recommendations
Abstract Online adaptive radiotherapy platforms present a unique challenge for commissioning as guidance is lacking and specialized adaptive equipment, such as deformable phantoms, are rare. We designed a novel adaptive commissioning process consisting of end‐to‐end tests using standard clinical resources.

Statistical process control to monitor use of a web‐based autoplanning tool
Abstract Purpose To investigate the use of statistical process control (SPC) for quality assurance of an integrated web‐based autoplanning tool, Radiation Planning Assistant (RPA). Methods Automatically generated plans were downloaded and imported into two treatment planning systems (TPSs), RayStation and Eclipse, in which they were recalculated using ...

Gaze-Contingent Ocular Parallax Rendering for Virtual Reality [PDF]
Immersive computer graphics systems strive to generate perceptually realistic user experiences. Current-generation virtual reality (VR) displays are successful in accurately rendering many perceptually important effects, including perspective, disparity, motion parallax, and other depth cues.

Treatment planning with a 2.5 MV photon beam for radiation therapy
Abstract Purpose The shallow depth of maximum dose and higher dose fall‐off gradient of a 2.5 MV beam along the central axis that is available for imaging on linear accelerators is investigated for treatment of shallow tumors and sparing the organs at risk (OARs) beyond it.

Correcting Presbyopia with Autofocusing Liquid-Lens Eyeglasses [PDF]
Presbyopia, an age-related ocular disorder, is characterized by the loss in the accommodative abilities of the human ocular system and afflicts more than 1.8 billion people world-wide. Conventional methods of correcting presbyopia fragment the field of vision, inherently resulting in significant vision impairment.

Myopia and defocus: the current understanding [PDF]
The current theories relating to the development and progression of myopia are related to exposure of the eye to hyperopic defocus. This paper discusses these theories and the large body of recent research investigating the evidence behind them.
