Assessment of dose distribution in pancreatic SABR in the presence of a metallic biliary stent using Monte Carlo modeling

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) with dose escalation is increasingly used for pancreatic cancer; however, the dosimetric impact of metallic biliary stents remains poorly characterized. Self‐expanding metal stents (SEMS), commonly placed for obstructive jaundice, contain high‐density nitinol that produces computed ...

Surface‐Guided Radiotherapy for Vulvar Cancer in the Frog‐Leg Position: Setup Accuracy and BMI Effects

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Radiotherapy for vulvar carcinoma often employs the “frog‐leg” position to minimize skin toxicity, but this position is biomechanically unstable and prone to setup errors using conventional skin markings. Purpose To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Surface‐Guided Radiotherapy (SGRT) for setup accuracy in vulvar cancer patients ...

AI‐assisted VMAT planning incorporating deep learning‐based dose prediction for head and neck cancer: feasibility of quality standardization and human intervention for irregular cases

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Volumetric‐modulated arc therapy (VMAT) represents a standard of care for head and neck cancer (HNC). However, treatment plan quality depends heavily on the planner's expertise, thereby challenging the standardization of treatment quality.

Nominal material density may not reflect TPS‐relevant density for 3D‐printed surgical reconstruction implants: An educational case study

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Additively manufactured (3D‐printed) surgical reconstruction implants are increasingly encountered in head and neck oncology and may introduce density assignment challenges during radiotherapy treatment planning. This case report describes a clinically significant dosimetric discrepancy arising from the application of nominal bulk material ...

The impact of different cervical planning target volume designs on efficacy and toxicity in nasopharyngeal carcinoma: a single-center retrospective study

BMC Cancer
Background In nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients, two radiation target delineation patterns are used for the cervical lymph node area. Purpose This study compares the efficacy and toxicity of two radiation target volume delineation patterns for ...

Dosimetric and clinical validation of a high‐density bolus for superficial skin tumors treated with radiotherapy

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Accurate dose deposition in superficial radiotherapy remains challenging due to the inherent skin‐sparing effect of megavoltage photon beams and difficulties in ensuring bolus conformity. Purpose This study aims to comprehensively evaluate the dosimetric characteristics of the room‐temperature‐malleable high‐density bolus, to ...

Assessment of 6MV flattening filter free (FFF) beam commissioning parameters for Versa HD and TrueBeam: A comparison study

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Flattening filter‐free (FFF) beams are increasingly deployed for stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). The Elekta Versa HD (VHD) and Varian TrueBeam (TB) are the two most widely used FFF‐capable platforms; however, no prior study has compared their 6 MV FFF commissioning parameters under fully ...

Initial experience of clinical implementation of an Online Simulation‐free CBCT‐based Adaptive Radiotherapy (OSCAR) workflow for palliative and urgent treatment indications

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background The current standard radiotherapy treatment planning workflow typically requires several hours to days, during which patients must wait before treatment can be initiated. In certain oncological situations, however, treatment should commence as soon as possible.
