A Python package for fast GPU‐based proton pencil beam dose calculation
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose Open‐source GPU‐based Monte Carlo (MC) proton dose calculation algorithms provide high speed and unparalleled accuracy but can be complex to integrate with new applications and remain slower than GPU‐based pencil beam (PB) methods, which sacrifice some physical accuracy for sub‐second plan calculation.

Using deep learning generated CBCT contours for online dose assessment of prostate SABR treatments
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Prostate Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy (SABR) is an ultra‐hypofractionated treatment where small setup errors can lead to higher doses to organs at risk (OARs). Although bowel and bladder preparation protocols reduce inter‐fraction variability, inconsistent patient adherence still results in OAR variability.

Decision Making with Machine Learning and ROC Curves [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 The Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve is a representation of the statistical information discovered in binary classification problems and is a key concept in machine learning and data science. This paper studies the statistical properties of ROC curves and its implication on model selection.

Machine stability and dosimetry for ultra‐high dose rate FLASH radiotherapy human clinical protocol
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The FLASH effect, induced by ultra‐high dose rate (UHDR) irradiations, offers the potential to spare normal tissue while effectively treating tumors. It is important to achieve precise and accurate dose delivery and to establish reliable detector systems, particularly for clinical trials needed to help the clinical transfer of FLASH‐
