Authors: Daniel A. Alexander, Jeffrey D. Bradley, Steven J. Feigenberg, Cole Friedes, Casey Hollawell, William Levin, Maksym Sharma, Boon-Keng Kevin Teo, Ying Xiao, Nikhil Yegya-Raman, Jennifer Wei Zou

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology and Applied Sciences, Department of Radiation Oncology, University of Pennsylvania, University of Pennsylvania

Abstract Preview: Purpose: To investigate lung function changes following definitive chemoradiation dose using CT-derived measurements in patients with locally advanced NSCLC at 6-months post-treatment compared to pre-...

Enhanced Lung Function Assessment through Machine Learning Analysis of 4DCT Subregional Respiratory Dynamics

Authors: Jing Cai, Zhi Chen, Hong Ge, Yu-Hua Huang, Bing Li, Zihan Li, Ge Ren

Affiliation: Department of Health Technology and Informatics, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Department of Radiation Oncology, The Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University and Henan Cancer Hospital

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Algorithms based on subregional respiratory dynamics (SRD) capture spatiotemporal heterogeneity in the ventilation process, though rely on empirical modelings to map surrogate ventilation. Gi...

Enhancing Proton Treatment and Mitigating Radiation-Induced Lung Injury Using a Novel Cycle Diffusion Approach for Lung Ventilation Estimation

Authors: Yang Lei, Haibo Lin, Tian Liu, Charles B. Simone, Shouyi Wei, Ajay Zheng

Affiliation: Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York Proton Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Radiation-induced lung injury (RILI), encompassing pneumonitis and fibrosis, represents a critical dose-limiting factor in lung cancer radiation therapy. Variability in treatment outcomes is ...

Novel Methods to Select Patients for Functional Avoidance Radiotherapy

Authors: Vikas Aragam, Edward Castillo, Richard Castillo, Yingxuan Chen, Yevgeniy Vinogradskiy, Lydia J. Wilson

Affiliation: Thomas Jefferson University, Emory University, University of Texas at Austin

Abstract Preview: Purpose: 4DCT-based ventilation imaging (4DCT-ventilation) has been innovatively applied in radiotherapy treatment planning to minimize doses to functional portions of the lung, known as functional av...
