Influence of respiratory motion management technique on radiation pneumonitis risk with robotic stereotactic body radiation therapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose/objectivesFor lung stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), real-time tumor tracking (RTT) allows for less radiation to normal lung compared to the internal target volume (ITV) method of respiratory motion management. To quantify the advantage

A generative model for segmentation of tumor and organs-at-risk for radiation therapy planning of glioblastoma patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present a fully automated generative method for simultaneous brain tumor and organs-at-risk segmentation in multi-modal magnetic resonance images. The method combines an existing whole-brain segmentation technique with a spatial tumor prior, which ...
