BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Motion management is essential to reduce normal tissue exposure and maintain adequate tumor dose in lung stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Lung SBRT using an articulated robotic arm allows dynamic tracking during rad...
PURPOSE: Close MRI surveillance of patients with brain metastases following Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) treatment is essential for assessing treatment response and the current disease status in the brain. This follow-up necessitates the compariso...
PURPOSE: We present a large real-world multicentric dataset of ovarian, uterine and cervical oligometastatic lesions treated with SBRT exploring efficacy and clinical outcomes. In addition, an exploratory machine learning analysis was performed.
. Small-field dosimetry is an ongoing challenge in radiotherapy quality assurance (QA) especially for radiosurgery systems such as CyberKnife. The objective of this work is to demonstrate the use of a plastic scintillator imaged with a commercial cam...

PURPOSE: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) stereotactic body radiation therapy with 50 Gy/5 fractions is sometimes considered controversial, as the nominal biologically effective dose (BED) of 100 Gy is felt by some to be insufficient for long-term ...
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to evaluate whether deep learning-based detection and quantification of brain metastasis (BM) may suggest treatment options for patients with BMs.

BACKGROUND: Deep learning-based segmentation algorithms usually required large or multi-institute data sets to improve the performance and ability of generalization. However, protecting patient privacy is a key concern in the multi-institutional stud...
BACKGROUND: Radiotherapy (RT) is involved in about 50% of all cancer patients, making it a very important treatment modality. The most common type of RT is external beam RT, which consists of delivering the radiation to the tumor from outside the bod...
