Evaluation of a Novel Multimodal Deformable Image Registration Algorithm for Pelvic MRI-CT Fusion in Radiotherapy

Authors: Christian Fiandra, Marco Fusella, Gianfranco Loi, Silvia Pesente, Lorenzo Placidi, Claudio Vecchi, Orlando Zaccaria, Stefania Zara

Affiliation: Abano Terme Hospital, University of Turin, Maggiore della CaritΓ , Tecnologie Avanzate Srl, Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Deformable-image-registration (DIR) is essential in modern radiotherapy for adaptive RT, re-irradiation, and other clinical applications. Multimodal DIR is especially important in MRI-only wo...

Preliminary Evaluation of Ultrasound-Derived Fat Fraction Reliability in a Pediatric Cohort

Authors: Lizbeth Ayala-Dominguez, Aaron L Carrel, Diego Hernando, Gabrielle L Hoffmann, Amber Possell, Ivan M. Rosado-Mendez, Jiayi Tang, Andrew Wentland

Affiliation: Department of Pediatrics, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Department of Radiology, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Department of Medical Physics, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Departments of Medical Physics and Radiology, University of Wisconsin-Madison

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MAFLD) is the leading cause of chronic liver disease in children. While biopsy remains the diagnostic standard, non-invasive imaging ...

Quantitative Assessment of Iodine Detectability As a Function of Tissue Density, Thickness and Dose in Contrast-Enhanced Mammography

Authors: Jeffrey S. Nelson, Raj Kumar Panta, Megan K. Russ, Ehsan Samei

Affiliation: Clinical Imaging Physics Group, Department of Radiology, Duke University Health System

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) enhances tumor detection by utilizing energy-dependent information from iodinated contrast agents. However, there is a lack of quantitative techniques to a...

Repeatability of Quantitative 3D T1ρ Imaging in Head and Neck Cancer

Authors: Sandeep Panwar Jogi, Nancy Lee, Ricardo Otazo, Ramesh Paudyal, Qi Peng, Akash Shah, Amita Shukla-Dave, Can Wu

Affiliation: Department of Radiology, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Department of Radiation Oncology, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Department of Medical Physics, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Department of Radiology, Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Montefiore Medical Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Quantitative T1ρ imaging provides enhanced tissue characterization beyond standard T1 and T2 parameters, potentially supporting early-stage longitudinal monitoring of head and neck cancer. Th...

Salvage High-Dose-Rate Brachytherapy for Locally Recurrent Prostate Cancer Treating Whole Gland with Focal Boost in Two Fractions

Authors: Elizabeth K. Butker, Cara Cimmino, Jenna L. Fair, David Matthew Giles, Bruce Hershatter, Shadab Momin, Sagar Patel, John Pattaras, Kamran Salari Salari, Aaron Weiss

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology and Winship Cancer Institute, Emory University, Emory University School of Medicine

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Prostate cancer patients may experience a local-only failure after radiation. While high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy may have more favorable toxicity profile and cancer control compared to ...

The Use of a Milled NIST Traceable Tld for End-to-End Validation in Mlc and Cone SRS Programs.

Authors: Ross Bland, Zachary A. Christ, Sophy Mangana, Feba Mathew, Stephanie K. Phoenix, Joseph Salloum, Jason D. Stanford, William Zollinger

Affiliation: Forrest General Cancer Center, Northeast Louisiana Cancer Institute, Florida Atlantic University

Abstract Preview: Purpose: The objective of this paper is twofold: 1) to explore the efficacy of using referenced beam models supplied by the vendor (Brainlab) and 2) the efficacy of NIST traceable TLD for end-to-end v...
