Evaluation of dosimetric and spatial accuracy of a virtual cone technique for radiosurgery using linac‐integrated CBCT‐based polymer gel dosimetry

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study evaluates the dosimetric and geometric precision of a virtual cone technique using CBCT‐based polymer gel dosimetry, enabling radiation delivery, and imaging readout within an identical spatial coordinate system. Methods We created a C# script for a virtual cone technique that generates a treatment plan with 10 gantry arcs ...

STRILL: Phase I Trial Evaluating Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) Dose Escalation for Re-Irradiation of Inoperable Peripheral Lung Lesions

open access: yesDiseases
Few data are available on the role of SBRT re-irradiation for isolated recurrences. We designed a prospective phase I study to evaluate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SBRT for thoracic re-irradiation, for peripheral lung lesions.

Evaluation of the system accuracy of frameless stereotactic radiosurgery using a combination of cone beam CT, six degrees of freedom couch, and surface image‐guided systems

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of the frameless linear accelerator‐based stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS) system incorporating cone‐beam CT (CBCT), six degrees of freedom (6‐DoF) couch, room laser, and surface image‐guided (SG) systems.

Optimization of Replanning Processes for Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy Plans at Risk of QA Failure Predicted by a Machine Learning Model

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Patient-specific quality assurance (PSQA) procedures ensure the safe delivery of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans. PSQA requires extensive time and resources and may cause treatment delays if replanning is needed due to failures.

Dosimetric Evaluation of a New Rotating Gamma System for Stereotactic Radiosurgery [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Purpose: A novel rotating gamma stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) system (Galaxy RTi) with real-time image guidance technology has been developed for high-precision SRS and frameless fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT). This work investigated the dosimetric quality of Galaxy by comparing both the machine treatment parameters and plan dosimetry ...

Improving dose delivery in non‐coplanar cranial SRS: Stereoscopic x‐ray‐guided mitigation of table walkout errors

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Purpose Linear accelerator (LINAC)‐based single‐isocenter multi‐target (SIMT) treatment has streamlined the cranial stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) workflow. Though efficient, SIMT delivery adds additional challenges that should be considered, including increased sensitivity to rotational errors for off‐isocenter targets.

Tumor Delineation For Brain Radiosurgery by a ConvNet and Non-Uniform Patch Generation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Deep learning methods are actively used for brain lesion segmentation. One of the most popular models is DeepMedic, which was developed for segmentation of relatively large lesions like glioma and ischemic stroke. In our work, we consider segmentation of brain tumors appropriate to stereotactic radiosurgery which limits typical lesion sizes.

A Statistical Analysis of the Effect of Different Embolization Materials on Gamma Knife Arteriovenous Malformation Dose Distributions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Gamma Knife Radiosurgery (GKRS) is a treatment choice in newly diagnosed AVMs and residual AVMs following endovascular interventions. Aim of this study is to determine if commercially available liquid embolic agents reduce the radiation dose to the target due to the attenuation of the 60Co beam.

DICOM attribute manipulation tool: Easily change frame of reference, series instance, and SOP instance UID

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose In radiation oncology, the integration and registration of multiple imaging modalities is a crucial aspect of the diagnosis and treatment planning process. These images are often inherently registered, a useful feature in most cases, but possibly a hindrance when registration modifications are required.
