Cochlea-sparing acoustic neuroma treatment with 4π radiation therapy. [PDF]

, 2018
PurposeThis study investigates whether 4π noncoplanar radiation therapy can spare the cochleae and consequently potentially improve hearing preservation in patients with acoustic neuroma who are treated with radiation therapy.Methods and ...

Dysphagia optimized knowledge‐based planning for head and neck cancer

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Purpose Swallowing dysfunction after radiotherapy (RT) is often linked to pharyngeal mucosal damage. This study aimed to develop a dysphagia‐optimized knowledge‐based planning (DO‐KBP) model by incorporating individual pharyngeal constrictors (DO‐KBP) into an existing model, which was based on a conventional approach of including pharynx as a ...

Commissioning of a near real‐time in vivo film dosimetry system

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Background Accurate in vivo dosimetry is crucial for dose monitoring of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) and for dose verification for special procedures such as total body irradiation (TBI) and total skin electron therapy (TSET). Purpose A new near real‐time in vivo dosimetry system using radiochromic films (RCF) is investigated ...

Radiation induced lichen planus - an uncommon side effect [PDF]

, 2019
Cutaneous lichen planus is classically characterized by violaceous, pruritic, planar papules and plaques, most commonly affecting the extremities. Lichen planus following radiation therapy is extremely rare and lichen planus following radiation therapy ...

Total body irradiation (TBI) combining volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) for thorax at standard source axis distance (SAD) with intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) at extended SAD

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Purpose Total body irradiation (TBI) is an important part of conditioning regimens prior to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). At our institution, a conventional TBI technique employing bilateral fields at extended source‐to‐axis distance (eSAD) and a solid three‐dimensional (3D) compensator has been standard practice since the ...

Dosimetric study for spine stereotactic body radiation therapy: magnetic resonance guided linear accelerator versus volumetric modulated arc therapy

Radiology and Oncology, 2019
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) given in 1-5 fractions is an effective treatment for vertebral metastases. Real-time magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) improves soft tissue contrast, which translates into accurate delivery of spine

Knowledge based automated planning for non‐coplanar VMAT stereotactic radiosurgery in ocular malignancies

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Background and purpose Stereotactic radiosurgery/radiotherapy (SRS/SRT) has emerged as a less invasive alternative to enucleation in the management of ocular malignancies. SRS/SRT planning is time‐consuming, complex, and the plan quality depends on the experience of the treatment planner.

An X‐ray and γ‐ray combination strategy to exploit steep dose gradients for improved prostate cancer radiotherapy: A dosimetric comparison of Taichi Pro and Halcyon

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to evaluate a novel technological platform, Taichi Pro—which integrates a 6 MV flattening filterfree linear accelerator with a 18 source Rotating Gamma System (RGS) to generate steep dose gradients via multisource focused γ‐rays and noncoplanar arcs—for precision radiotherapy in prostate cancer.

Dosimetric Comparison Using an Intraoral Stent during Volumetric-modulated Arc Therapy in a Patient with Carcinoma of the Tongue

Journal of Radiation and Cancer Research
A 47-year-old man diagnosed with carcinoma of the tongue and postsurgery was planned for adjuvant radiotherapy. He was simulated for radiotherapy with or without an acrylic intraoral stent (IOS). Two different radiotherapy treatment plans with volumetric-

Isocenter Optimization in WBRT: Concurrent Sparing of Lens and Lacrimal Gland via Anterior Penumbra Sharpening

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Background With improving survival for patients receiving whole‐brain radiotherapy (WBRT), mitigating long‐term toxicities like cataract and dry eye syndrome has become increasingly critical. The lens and lacrimal gland are highly radiosensitive and lie in close proximity to the target volume, posing a persistent challenge for achieving sharp ...
