Confidence in a Tattoo-Less Transition

Authors: Laura A. Doyle, Amy S. Harrison, Allyson P Koecher, Jackson D Reeves, Lindsay B Romak

Affiliation: Christiana Care

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Surface guided radiation therapy (SGRT) is increasingly utilized in radiation oncology, allowing for transition away from permanent skin marks to SGRT-based daily treatment setup. Following i...

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) on Use of Surface Guided Imaging

Authors: Victoria Noelle Bry, Tamara Egan, Eric C. Ford, Angelia Landers, Juergen Meyer

Affiliation: Fred Hutch Cancer Center, University of Washington, Department of Radiation Oncology, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, University of Washington, University of Washington

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Surface guided radiation therapy (SGRT) can improve patient safety, however, its complex integration may expose processes to increased risk of error. This work identifies potential failures f...

Lung Mass Variability in Clinical Chest CT Imaging with Automatic Contouring Tool

Authors: Yasaman Anbari, Srinivas Cheenu Kappadath, Benjamin P. Lopez

Affiliation: University of Houston, UT MD Anderson Cancer Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: To improve lung dosimetry for 90Y-radioembolization planning, CT-based techniques have been proposed for patient-specific lung mass estimation instead of assuming nominal 1 kg lung masses. He...

Ultrafast Proton Delivery with Pin Ridge Filters (pRFs): A Novel Approach for Motion Management in Proton Therapy

Authors: Zachary Diamond, Pretesh Patel, Sibo Tian, Yinan Wang, Xiaofeng Yang, David Yu, Ahmal Jawad Zafar, Jun Zhou

Affiliation: Emory University, Department of Radiation Oncology and Winship Cancer Institute, Emory University

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Active breath-hold techniques effectively mitigate respiratory motion but poses challenges for patients who are unable to tolerate the procedure. Conventional planning relies on multiple ener...
