A Novel Groupwise Shape Deformable Registration Algorithm to Quantify the Respiratory Motion of the Heart in Respiratory 4DCTs While Accounting for Random Cardiac Motion Artifacts in the Respiratory 4DCTs

Authors: Anna E. Rodrigues, Yuhao Wang, Deshan Yang

Affiliation: Duke University, Department of Radiation Oncology, Duke University

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Accurate motion margin definition in StereoTactic Arrhythmia Radiotherapy (STAR) requires accurate cardiorespiratory motion assessment. However, respiratory 4DCT (r4DCT) images are affected b...

A Preliminary Study of Light-Weighted and Flexible Bismuth Nanoparticle-Based Polymer Matrix for Efficient Radiation Shielding

Authors: Ming Su, Yuenan Nancy Wang

Affiliation: Northeastern University, Hartford Healthcare

Abstract Preview: Purpose: High Z elements such as lead are often used to protect critical structures in clinical radiotherapy. Nanoparticles have different properties than bulk materials. We proposed a polymer matrix ...
