Assessment of Vasculature Mapping Using Infrared Imaging System for Treatment Planning

Authors: Lily Jo Bertemes, Careesa Billante, Ashley Cetnar, Maximilian Stephen Meineke, Runhe Tan

Affiliation: The James Cancer Center, The Ohio State University, The Ohio State University - James Cancer Hospital

Abstract Preview: Purpose: The response of healthy vasculature due to radiation treatments is an underexplored area of radiation oncology. Understanding the impact of radiation on veins could advance treatment optimiza...

Characterisation of Breathing Volumes and Surface Motion for Upright and Supine Treatment Positions

Authors: Sophie Boisbouvier, David Cobben, Anthony L Criscuolo, Michael W. Kissick, Mark Ramtohul, Gordon Sands, Tracy Underwood

Affiliation: University of Surrey, Department of Medical Physics, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Lung Cancer and Sarcoma Radiotherapy, The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre, Leo Cancer Care, Radiotherapy department, Centre Léon Bérard

Abstract Preview: Purpose:
Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) help assess treatment options for lung cancer patients. Conventionally, these are undertaken upright, whereas radiotherapy is administered supine. This stud...

Deep Learning-Based Eye Monitoring and Tracking System for Ocular Proton Therapy in a Regular Gantry Room

Authors: David H. Abramson, Christopher Barker, Jasmine H. Francis, Meng Wei Ho, Yen-Po Lee, Haibo Lin, Hang Qi, Andy Shim, Charles B. Simone, Weihong Sun, Xiaoxuan Xu, Siyu Yang, Francis Yu, Anna Zhai

Affiliation: College of Machine Intelligence, Nankai University, New York Proton Center, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Johns Hopkins University, Department of Radiation Oncology, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Proton therapy is an effective modality for treating ocular tumors such as uveal melanoma. We developed a novel camera‐based eye‐tracking system to provide real-time noninvasive eye positioni...

Dosimetry for Low Energy Electrons and Their Potential Use in Radiotherapy

Authors: Christoph Bert, Leon Brückner, Luitpold Distel, Julian Freier, Peter Hommelhoff, Bastian Löhrl

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology, Uniklinikum Erlangen, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Department Physik, Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Low energy electron (LEE) bunches in the kilo electronvolt (keV) range are thought to have a high relative biological effectiveness (RBE). To investigate this, it is necessary to establish re...

Enhancing Radiation Therapy Precision and Safety: The Role of Cherenkov Imaging in Clinical Practice.

Authors: Adi Robinson, Michael J. Tallhamer

Affiliation: Centura Health, AdventHealth Orlando

Abstract Preview: Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the integration of Cherenkov imaging into radiation therapy practices, focusing on its utility in enhancing treatment precision, patient safety, and clinical decis...

Evaluating the Role of Surface-Guided Radiotherapy in Prone Breast Cancer Treatment

Authors: Shifeng Chen, Mariana Guerrero, Michael J. MacFarlane, Huijun Xu, Baoshe Zhang, Jinghao Zhou

Affiliation: University of Maryland School of Medicine, Department of Radiation Oncology, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Capital Region Medical Center, University of Maryland Shore Regional Cancer Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: The clinical value of surface-guided radiotherapy (SGRT) in prone breast cancer setups is much less established than in supine setups. This study explores SGRT's potential for prone breast pa...
