A Novel Proton Lattice Modality Using Minibeams

Authors: Hao Gao, Yuting Lin, Nimita Shinde, Weijie Zhang

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology, University of Kansas Medical Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: LATTICE, a form of spatially fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT), delivers high-dose peaks and low-dose valleys to the target volume and has been clinically used for large target volumes. H...

Creation of Proton Minibeams in a Pbs Nozzle from Low Emittance Source Beams

Authors: Seung Yeon Kim, Grant A. McAuley, Ju A Park, Jerry D Slater

Affiliation: Loma Linda University

Abstract Preview: Purpose: The production of proton minibeams in standard PBS nozzles is challenging due to the effects of finite source beam divergence and multiple Coulomb scattering. Herein we investigate the use of...

Development of a High-Speed Digital Breast Tomosynthesis System with a Two-Dimensional Multiple X-Ray-Source Array

Authors: John M. Boone, Andrew M. Hernandez, Paul Schwoebel, Jeffrey H. Siewerdsen, Alejandro Sisniega, Wojciech B. Zbijewski

Affiliation: Johns Hopkins University, University of California, UT MD Anderson Cancer Center, University of New Mexico Albuquerque, UC Davis Health

Abstract Preview: Purpose: To significantly improve image quality relative to clinically deployed digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) systems, which use a 1D acquisition geometry (an arc), with a 2D image acquisition ge...

Synthetic Vs. Conventional Planar Imaging: Performance and Clinical Feasibility

Authors: Jennifer Kwak, Chelsea Manica, Justin K. Mikell, Michael Silosky, Wendy Siman

Affiliation: Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, School of Medicine, Rocky Vista University

Abstract Preview: Purpose:
This study evaluates synthetic planar imaging (synP) from SPECT projections against conventional planar imaging, focusing on detectability, spatial resolution, and feasibility. SynP allows...
