3D Printing Assisted Collimator Design for Fan Beam-Based X-Ray Fluorescence Tomographic Imaging

Authors: Brett Bocian, Nesrin Dogan, John C. Ford, Alan Pollack, Ryder Marshall Schmidt, Junwei Shi, Jorge D Vega

Affiliation: University of Miami, University of Miami Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: X-ray fluorescence computed tomography (XFCT) is an emerging molecular imaging modality gaining attention in cancer theranostics with high-Z metal nanoparticles (MNPs). While XFCT has been de...

Computational Prototype Single-Channel Vaginal Cylinder with Integrated Filter to Address Dose Uniformity in High-Dose-Rate Brachytherapy for Endometrial Cancer

Authors: Brett Bocian, Patrick James Jensen, Luis Augusto Perles, Christopher J. Tien

Affiliation: Yale University School of Medicine, University of Miami, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, UT MD Anderson Cancer Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Guidelines for dose prescriptions in endometrial cancer are based upon depth from the cylinder, traditionally 5 mm or 0 mm (i.e., surface). There are no current single-channel vaginal cylinde...

Monte Carlo Simulation of Dose Perturbations in HAM Applicator HDR Brachytherapy Treatments

Authors: Sam Beddar, Brett Bocian, David B. Flint, Benjamin Abraham Insley, Patrick James Jensen, Rachael M. Martin Paulpeter, Joshua S. Niedzielski, Luis Augusto Perles, Reza Reiazi, Gabriel O. Sawakuchi
