Assessment of dose distribution in pancreatic SABR in the presence of a metallic biliary stent using Monte Carlo modeling

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) with dose escalation is increasingly used for pancreatic cancer; however, the dosimetric impact of metallic biliary stents remains poorly characterized. Self‐expanding metal stents (SEMS), commonly placed for obstructive jaundice, contain high‐density nitinol that produces computed ...

A geometry‐based scaling model for stereotactic treatment volume definition in stereotactic centralized ablative radiation therapy

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Stereotactic Centralized Ablative Radiation Therapy (SCART) is a spatially fractionated radiotherapy strategy designed for large or bulky tumors by delivering an intensified ablative dose to a centrally located subvolume while allowing controlled dose reduction toward the tumor periphery.

Cardiac synchronized volumetric modulated arc therapy

, 2019
Cardiac arrhythmias are abnormal heart rhythms that can adversely affect patients. The current treatment options include antiarrhythmic drug therapy and catheter ablation, both of which are associated with issues regarding efficacy and potential complications for complex arrhythmias.

Surface‐Guided Radiotherapy for Vulvar Cancer in the Frog‐Leg Position: Setup Accuracy and BMI Effects

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Radiotherapy for vulvar carcinoma often employs the “frog‐leg” position to minimize skin toxicity, but this position is biomechanically unstable and prone to setup errors using conventional skin markings. Purpose To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Surface‐Guided Radiotherapy (SGRT) for setup accuracy in vulvar cancer patients ...

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.

Dosimetric and clinical validation of a high‐density bolus for superficial skin tumors treated with radiotherapy

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Accurate dose deposition in superficial radiotherapy remains challenging due to the inherent skin‐sparing effect of megavoltage photon beams and difficulties in ensuring bolus conformity. Purpose This study aims to comprehensively evaluate the dosimetric characteristics of the room‐temperature‐malleable high‐density bolus, to ...

Evaluating synthetic CT from deformable registration in directed adaptive radiotherapy for head and neck cancer

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background and purposel Anatomical changes over the many weeks of radiotherapy for Head and Neck cancer patients can compromise the original treatment plan, potentially increase the risk of side effects and impact outcomes. It is difficult to decide, based on daily imaging alone, which patients will most benefit from adapted treatment plans ...
