Abstract Purpose Sparing pharyngeal constrictor muscles (PCMs) during radiotherapy improves patient‐reported swallowing function. This study aimed to explore the feasibility of integrating knowledge‐based planning (KBP) with multicriteria optimization (MCO) in Eclipse v18.0 to selectively spare PCM, quantify the required trade‐off in prophylactic ...

Developing reference plans for evaluating global clinical trials credentialing and PSQA systems
Abstract Purpose To develop a practical framework for creating a diverse set of validated reference plans (varying in complexity) and implement a workflow to introduce beam modeling, calibration, and delivery errors into the reference cohort to test and compare various dosimetry audit methodologies.

Transverse coherent transition radiation for diagnosis of modulated proton bunches
Transverse coherent transition radiation (TCTR) emitted by a relativistic particle bunch traversing a conducting surface is analyzed. The bunch emits dipolelike radiation in the direction transverse to the bunch axis when the beam radius is smaller than ...

Abstract Purpose Four‐dimensional cone‐beam CT (4D CBCT) incorporates oversampling of 3D data to reconstruct multi‐phase CBCT data sets representing distinct phases of the breathing cycle based on a diaphragmatic correlate of respiratory motion. Motion artifacts and blurring can be reduced relative to three‐dimensional cone‐beam (3D CBCT), allowing ...

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY OF SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES EXPOSED TO TRANSITION RADIATION
The subject of the paper is an analysis and a physical model of the occurrence of reversible failures in semiconductor diodes (when current-voltage characteristics of the devices are influenced by electromagnetic radiation (EMR)).

Abstract Purpose To generate high‐quality stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) plans for single cranial lesions using 4Pi planning technique and compare these to our clinical “status quo” plans. Methods Eighteen vestibular schwannoma (VS) patients previously planned with Varian Eclipse RapidArc and treated on a Varian TrueBeam using 6FFF MV photon beams ...

Abstract Purpose This study aims to evaluate how different gantry angles, breathing rates (BPM), cine image speeds, and tracking algorithms affect beam on/off latency and the subsequent impact on target dose for a 0.35T MR‐Linac with a 6 MV FFF beam.

Energy dependence of the GAFCHROMIC LD‐V1 in the diagnostic radiographic modalities
Abstract The GAFCHROMIC LD‐V1 radiochromic film is widely used in dosimetry because it can provide high‐resolution two‐dimensional dose distributions without processing. This study aimed to evaluate the response characteristics at different effective energies, from the low‐energy range of mammography to the high‐energy range of computed tomography. Net
