Development and Implementation of Trajectory Optimization Technologies for Cranial Stereotactic Radiation Therapy
Radiotherapy treatment planning optimization employs metrics for the quantification of plan quality indicators based on a set of input desired criteria by the planner. Patient-specificity in current practice is limited to ... -
The production and detection of optimized low-Z linear accelerator target beams for image guidance in radiotherapy
(2012-08-28)Recent work has demonstrated improvement of image quality with low atomic number (Z) linear accelerator (linac) targets and energies as low as 3.5 MV compared to a standard 6 MV therapeutic beam. In this work, the incident ... -
Surface Dose Enhancement Using Low-Z Electron/Photon Beams
(2014-12-23)Advances in linear accelerator technology has lead to the development of a linac which incorporates an in-air target assembly, making it possible to investigate novel treatments using multiple target designs. One such novel ...
