Automated 3D portal dosimetry for large-scale plan-specific QA in external beam radiotherapy [PDF]
External beam radiation therapy (EBRT) delivers targeted radiation from outside the body to destroy cancer cells. Plan-specific quality assurance (PSQA) ensures accurate dose delivery for each treatment.

Abstract Background Variability in low monitor unit (MU) deliveries has been previously documented, but the underlying pulse‑level behavior has not been fully described due to the integrating nature of most conventional detectors. A plastic scintillation detector (PSD) enables direct visualization of MU microstructure by isolating individual linac ...

Abstract Background and purpose Anatomical changes during radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) frequently compromise target volume coverage while escalating dose delivery to organs at risk (OARs). In adaptive radiotherapy (ART), optimizing workflow efficiency to minimize clinical workload while maximizing patient benefit remains a ...

Abstract Background Total skin electron therapy (TSET, also known as TSE, TSI, TSEI or TSEBT) provides an effective treatment for extensive superficial lesions such as mycosis fungoides, although the standing setups and large distances used for treatment mean that comprehensive three‐dimensional (3D) dose calculations are rarely achievable clinically ...

Abstract Purpose Spatially fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT) planning requires three coordinated tasks: generation of high‐dose sphere structures, position‐aware optimization, and peak‐valley dose ratio evaluation. In practice, clinicians and researchers address these tasks with a combination of closed‐source scripts, research codes, and manual ...

Abstract Background Pre‐clinical in vivo characterization is a necessary step in the translation of novel radiotherapeutic interventions to clinical application. In vivo irradiations using a radioactive source like Ir‐192 are challenging due to steep dose gradients and absence of universally available applicators that do not require physical contact or
