Phase II clinical trial of robotic stereotactic body radiosurgery for metastatic gynecologic malignancies

Frontiers in Oncology, 2012
Background Recurrent gynecologic cancers are often difficult to manage without significant morbidity. We conducted a phase II study to assess the safety and the efficacy of ablative robotic stereotactic body radiosurgery (SBRT) in women with metastatic ...

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.

Sacral insufficiency fracture after stereotactic body radiation therapy for sacral metastasis

Clinical Case Reports, 2018
Key Clinical Message Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) allows the targeting of high doses of radiation with steep dose gradients. Vertebral fracture is increasingly recognized as an adverse event after SBRT; however, no sacral fractures have ...

Performance evaluation of a new type of commercial silicon detectors for photon beam dosimetry

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Modern radiotherapy relies on advanced treatment techniques that utilize a large number of small fields, for which maintaining dosimetric accuracy is often challenging. Most vendors have introduced microdetectors suitable for small field dosimetry. Sun Nuclear has developed two silicon diodes with a sensitive volume of 0.35 mm3 that

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 ...

Monte carlo assessment of advanced shielding materials for space‐efficient radiotherapy vault design

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Conventional radiotherapy vault shielding typically employs 2 to 3 meters of ordinary concrete, consistent with NCRP Report 151 reference data. While NCRP 151 specifies dose‐based design goals rather than mandating particular materials, the practical default of concrete results in vault footprints of 150 to 200 m2 per linac, which ...

Quantitative evaluation of respiratory motion‐induced blurring in expiratory‐phase CBCT for pancreatic SBRT

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) is widely used in image‐guided radiotherapy because it reflects the patient's anatomy immediately before treatment. However, CBCT images of the abdominal organs, including the pancreas, are often degraded by respiratory motion.

Clinical implementation and performance evaluation of a motorized MR‐compatible OCTAVIUS 4D system for SBRT patient‐specific QA on a 1.5 T MR‐LINAC

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Magnetic resonance–guided radiotherapy using 1.5 T MR‐LINAC systems introduces specific constraints for patient‐specific quality assurance (PSQA), requiring MR‐compatible dosimetric devices capable of accurate three‐dimensional dose verification.
