Precision in the Face of Noise -- Lessons from Kahneman, Siboney, and Sunstein for Radiation Oncology [PDF]
In this manuscript, we draw on the insights from Kahneman, Sibony, and Sunsteins influential nonfiction book Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment to explore the concept of unwanted variability in judgment (i.e., noise). We introduce key terms and connect these insights to the field of radiation oncology by illustrating how noise contributes to errors in ...

A mathematical aid decision tool for RT planning [PDF]
It is possible to find the optimized radiation dose per session for a radiotherapy (RT) treatment, using a population dynamics model. This has already been done in a previous work for a protocol with 30 sessions and a fixed dose per session. Extending this model to other protocols, with a variable number of sessions, we could change the radiation ...

A recent evaluation on the performance of LLMs on radiation oncology physics using questions of randomly shuffled options [PDF]
Purpose: We present an updated study evaluating the performance of large language models (LLMs) in answering radiation oncology physics questions, focusing on the recently released models. Methods: A set of 100 multiple-choice radiation oncology physics questions, previously created by a well-experienced physicist, was used for this study. The answer

Cell bystander effect induced by radiofrequency electromagnetic fields and magnetic nanoparticles [PDF]
Induced effects by direct exposure to ionizing radiation (IR) are a central issue in many fields like radiation protection, clinic diagnosis and oncological therapies. Direct irradiation at certain doses induce cell death, but similar effects can also occur in cells no directly exposed to IR, a mechanism known as bystander effect.

Radiation visualization in radiation oncology
According an implementation in clinic practice new stereotactic and modulated methods, hadrontherapy, which significantly upgrade the precise of dose delivery, the optimization of radiotherapy planning is especially important. In review the role of modern methods of visualization in all stages of radiation therapy – simulation, planning, dose delivery ...

Generalized calculus in radiobiology: Physical implications [PDF]
Non-extensive statistical physics has allowed to generalize mathematical functions such as exponential and logarithms. The same framework is used to generalize sum and product so that the operations allow a more fluid way to work with mathematical expressions emerging from non-additive formulation of statistical physics.
