Motion Mitigation Techniques for Abdominal and Cardiac MR Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT MRI of the heart and abdominal organs provides unparalleled soft tissue contrast and quantitative biomarkers, yet remains highly susceptible to physiological motion. Contractions of the myocardium, respiratory excursions, peristalsis, vascular pulsatility, and unpredictable bulk patient movement generate artifacts that impair image quality ...

Healing Beams: Radiation and Radiotherapy in Novels, Poems, Music, Film, Painting

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Radiation and radiotherapy are perceived by patients and the general public as mysterious, dangerous and healing. The image of radiation and radiotherapy can be analysed by studying novels, poems, music, film and painting. Our paper reviews how radiation and radiotherapy are perceived by patients, the general public, as reflected in various art genres.

Magnetic Resonance Guided Radiation Therapy (MRgRT) Prostate Motion and Margins

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study evaluated intra‐fractional prostate motion during MR‐guided radiotherapy to determine appropriate PTV margins for prostate cancer. Analysis of 18 patients resulted in calculated margins of 3.2 mm (AP), 1.7 mm (LR), and 3.2 mm (SI), supporting the potential for margin reduction with MRgRT. ABSTRACT Introduction Systematic and random errors in

Eye‐Tracking Analysis in Surface‐Guided Radiation Therapy Positioning: A Comparative Study of Experienced and Novice Radiation Therapists

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study compared expert and novice radiation therapists during surface‐guided radiation therapy (SGRT) setup for head and neck cases using eye tracking. Experts exhibited fewer gaze fixations and concentrated on specific screens during the latter half of positioning, suggesting that they efficiently identified key positioning points.

Stabilised Hyaluronic Acid Gel Rectal Spacers in MRI‐Guided Brachytherapy for Gynaecological Cancers: A Prospective Feasibility Study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This prospective study investigated the feasibility of stabilised hyaluronic acid gel as a rectal spacer in gynaecological cancer brachytherapy. In twelve patients, the spacer was successfully inserted into the rectovaginal space without serious adverse events, had high visibility on MRI, increased the target‐to‐rectum distance compared with no spacer ...
