Gaussian process regression of HDR prostate biopsy dose for improved modelling of localization‐induced uncertainty

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Background Biopsy‐level dose interpretation after high‐dose‐rate prostate brachytherapy is limited by localization uncertainty, and separate voxelwise Monte Carlo summaries do not explicitly account for the axial spatial correlation present along a biopsy core.

Spot size reduction and minibeam creation in a proton PBS nozzle using multipole permanent magnets

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Background Smaller spot sizes in pencil beam scanning (PBS) nozzles are generally desired to allow more conformal treatments and to spare normal tissue and organs at risk. The production of small diameter proton beams, especially proton minibeams, is challenging because long drift spaces in standard PBS nozzles exacerbate effects of MCS and ...

Data_Sheet_1_A Brief Review of Low-Dose Rate (LDR) and High-Dose Rate (HDR) Brachytherapy Boost for High-Risk Prostate.docx

open access: yes, 2019
For patients with unfavorable or high-risk prostate cancer, dose escalated radiation therapy leads to improved progression free survival but attempts to deliver increased dose by external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) alone can be limited by late ...
