A SEGMENTATION PROBLEM IN QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF ORGAN DISPOSITION IN RADIOTHERAPY
Image Analysis and Stereology, 2011 Radiotherapeutic treatment of cancer is best conducted if the prescription dose is given to the tumor while surrounding normal tissues are maximally spared.

Radiotherapy Dosimetry: A Review on Open-Source Optimizer [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Radiotherapy dosimetry plays a crucial role in optimizing treatment plans for cancer patients. In this study, we investigate the performance of a dozen standard state-of-the-art open-source optimizers for radiotherapy dosimetry. Our evaluation includes the use of TGG119 benchmark cases as well as one real case obtained from the Institute du Cancer de ...

Real-time non-rigid 3D respiratory motion estimation for MR-guided radiotherapy using MR-MOTUS [PDF]
, 2021 The MR-Linac is a combination of an MR-scanner and radiotherapy linear accelerator (Linac) which holds the promise to increase the precision of radiotherapy treatments with MR-guided radiotherapy by monitoring motion during radiotherapy with MRI, and adjusting the radiotherapy plan accordingly.

Combinatorial optimisation in radiotherapy treatment planning [PDF]
AIMS Medical Science, 2018 The goal of radiotherapy is to cover a target area with a desired radiation dose while keeping the exposition of non-target areas as low as possible in order to reduce radiation side effects. In the case of Intensity Modulated Proton Therapy (IMPT), the dose distribution is typically designed via a treatment planning optimisation process based on ...

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Purpose The aim of this work was to evaluate the SunCHECK PerFRACTION, the software for in vivo monitoring using EPID images. Materials/Methods First, the PerFRACTION ability to detect errors was investigated simulating two situations: (1) variation of LINAC output and (2) variation of the phantom thickness.

A real-time contouring feedback tool for consensus-based contour training
Frontiers in Oncology, 2023 PurposeVariability in contouring structures of interest for radiotherapy continues to be challenging. Although training can reduce such variability, having radiation oncologists provide feedback can be impractical. We developed a contour training tool to

Impact of treatment planning target volumen (PTV) size on radiation induced diarrhoea following selenium supplementation in gynecologic radiation oncology - a subgroup analysis of a multicenter, phase III trial [PDF]
, 2013 Background: In a previous analysis (Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 70:828-835,2010), we assessed whether an adjuvant supplementation with selenium (Se) improves Se status and reduces the radiation-induced side-effects of patients treated by adjuvant ...

Automated treatment planning of postmastectomy radiotherapy [PDF]
Medical Physics, 2019 PurposeBreast cancer is the most common cancer in women globally and radiation therapy is a cornerstone of its treatment. However, there is an enormous shortage of radiotherapy staff, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. This shortage could be ameliorated through increased automation in the radiation treatment planning process, which may ...
