An integrated toolkit for structure generation, optimization, and evaluation in spatially fractionated radiation therapy

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Purpose Spatially fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT) planning requires three coordinated tasks: generation of high‐dose sphere structures, position‐aware optimization, and peak‐valley dose ratio evaluation. In practice, clinicians and researchers address these tasks with a combination of closed‐source scripts, research codes, and manual ...

Same‐day Hyaluronic Acid rectal spacer for TRUS‐guided HDR Prostate Brachytherapy: Feasibility and dosimetric outcomes

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Background Rectal spacers are widely used to reduce rectal dose in prostate radiotherapy. However, their use during transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)‐guided high‐dose‐rate (HDR) brachytherapy has been limited by degradation of ultrasound image quality when placed on the day of the procedure, often necessitating CT‐based planning or separate‐day ...
