HyperArcTM Automated Radiosurgery Planning Enables Accurate a Priori Isotoxic Prescription Dose Selection

Authors: Rex A. Cardan, Carlos E. Cardenas, John B Fiveash, Joel A. Pogue, Richard A. Popple, Farnaz Rahim Li, Rodney J. Sullivan, Natalie N. Viscariello, Christopher Willey

Affiliation: The University of Alabama at Birmingham, University of Alabama at Birmingham

Abstract Preview: Purpose: vBrain radiosurgery toxicity-rate is estimated via clinically-relevant isodose volume (IDV) thresholds according to HyTEC (e.g., V12Gy≤10cc). HyperArcTM (HA) automated planning allows accurat...

Multimodal Framework for Predicting Radiation-Induced Severe Acute Esophagitis in Esophageal Cancer

Authors: Yeona Cho, Chloe Min Seo Choi, Joseph O. Deasy, Jue Jiang, Jihun Kim, Jin Sung Kim, Nikhil Mankuzhy, Aneesh Rangnekar, Andreas Rimner, Maria Thor, Harini Veeraraghavan, Abraham Wu

Spatially Informed Auto-Segmentation of Cardiac Nodes for Radiotherapy Treatment Planning

Authors: Ming Dong, Carri K. Glide-Hurst, Joshua Pan, Nicholas R. Summerfield

Affiliation: Department of Computer Science, Wayne State University, Departments of Human Oncology and Medical Physics, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Department of Human Oncology, University of Wisconsin-Madison

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Radiation dose to the cardiac nodes is more strongly associated with conduction disorders and arrythmias than whole heart (WH) metrics. However, node segmentation is challenging due to comple...
