Cardiac radioablation for atrial fibrillation: Target motion characterization and treatment delivery considerations.
Published 2021Purpose: The safe delivery of cardiac radioablation (CR) for atrial fibrillation (AF) is challenged by multi-direction target motion, cardiac rate variability, target proximity to critical structures, and the importance ...Open AccessArticle -
Pelvic organ motion and dosimetric implications during horizontal patient rotation for prostate radiation therapy.
Published 2021Purpose: Gantry-free radiation therapy systems utilizing patient rotation would be simpler and more cost effective than the conventional gantry-based systems. Such a system could enable the expansion of radiation therapy ...Open AccessArticle -
A Review of Cardiac Radioablation (CR) for Arrhythmias: Procedures, Technology, and Future Opportunities.
Published 2021Purpose: Cardiac radioablation (CR), a new treatment for cardiac arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation, has had promising clinical outcomes to date. There is consequent desire for rapid clinical ...Open AccessArticle -
Measurements of human tolerance to horizontal rotation within an MRI scanner: Towards gantry-free radiation therapy.
Published 2021Introduction: Recent advances in image guidance and adaptive radiotherapy could enable gantry-free radiotherapy using patient rotation. Gantry-free radiotherapy could substantially reduce the cost of radiotherapy systems ...Open AccessArticle -
Towards real-time 4D radiation dosimetry on an MRI-Linac
Published 20204D radiation dosimetry using a highly radiation-sensitive polymer gel dosimeter with real-time quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) readout is presented as a technique to acquire the accumulated radiation dose ...Open AccessArticle
