Dosimetric analysis and comparison of IMRT and HDR brachytherapy in treatment of localized prostate cancer

open access: yesJournal of Medical Physics, 2010
Radical radiotherapy is one of the options for the management of prostate cancer. In external beam therapy, 3D conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) are the options for delivery of increased radiation dose, as vital ...

Generalizability of deep learning–based dose conversion model in proton beam therapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Background In proton beam therapy (PBT), the analytical pencil beam (PB) algorithm involves dose uncertainties in inhomogeneous regions, making accurate Monte Carlo (MC) dose calculation desirable but time‐consuming. Deep learning, converting the dose calculated by the PB algorithm into an MC‐equivalent dose distribution, can resolve the trade‐

Knowledge based automated planning for non‐coplanar VMAT stereotactic radiosurgery in ocular malignancies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Background and purpose Stereotactic radiosurgery/radiotherapy (SRS/SRT) has emerged as a less invasive alternative to enucleation in the management of ocular malignancies. SRS/SRT planning is time‐consuming, complex, and the plan quality depends on the experience of the treatment planner.

Isocenter Optimization in WBRT: Concurrent Sparing of Lens and Lacrimal Gland via Anterior Penumbra Sharpening

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Background With improving survival for patients receiving whole‐brain radiotherapy (WBRT), mitigating long‐term toxicities like cataract and dry eye syndrome has become increasingly critical. The lens and lacrimal gland are highly radiosensitive and lie in close proximity to the target volume, posing a persistent challenge for achieving sharp ...
