Real‐time motion tracking of a gold implant in water by Cherenkov lights

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Background The intra‐fraction motion of tumors during radiation therapy can be monitored using imaging systems based on X‐ray imaging (e.g., kV/MV radiography or CBCT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, these techniques have limitations, including additional ionizing radiation dose and the need for complex, expensive equipment ...

Multi‐TPS institutional surveillance of VMAT plan complexity and PSQA results over three years

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Background Running VMAT plan‐complexity surveillance directly inside an oncology information system (OIS) makes it practical to monitor plan quality across a large, multi‐linac program. Complexity metrics are increasingly used to anticipate patient‐specific QA (PSQA) outcomes, but few studies span multiple years or tie complexity monitoring to

Development and evaluation of an automated report‐based chart checking tool in external beam radiotherapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Background Computerized radiotherapy chart checking tools have revolutionized the initial physics chart review process as they offer verification of large amounts of plan parameters in seconds and allow physicists to concentrate on high‐skill‐level items that are challenging for automation.

An integrated toolkit for structure generation, optimization, and evaluation in spatially fractionated radiation therapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
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 ...

Surface‐guided analysis of breast shape changes during postoperative radiotherapy by using a functional map framework

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract BackgroundWhile positioning errors during radiotherapy are increasingly well‐characterized and accounted for in the Planning Target Volume (PTV), little is known about the shape and volume changes of the breast in the course of radiotherapy. Yet they represent an unknown factor that may impact treatment effectiveness, highlighting the need to ...

Semi‐Automatic Assessment of Crohn's Disease Activity by Combined Analysis of Bowel Lesions and Creeping Fat

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 1, Page 302-314, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop and evaluate Crohn‐BOOST, an open‐source tool enabling semi‐automatic segmentation of intestinal lesions and creeping fat on magnetic resonance enterography (MR Enterography), and to assess whether quantitative metrics derived from these segmentations relate to radiological disease activity scored with simplified MaRIA ...

Retrospective Dosimetric Comparison of HDR Interventional Radiotherapy (Brachytherapy) Versus Planning with VMAT and Electron Beam Therapy for Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer Treatment

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This study compares dosimetric outcomes of high-dose-rate (HDR) interventional radiotherapy (IRT) using Iridium-192, Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT), and electron beam therapy for non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC).
