• Cone-beam CT reconstruction with gravity-induced motion. 

  Shieh, CC; Barber, J; Counter, W; Sykes, J; Bennett, P; Heng, SM; White, P; Corde, S; Jackson, M; Ahern, V; Feain, I; O'Brien, R; Keall, PJ (IOPscience, 2018-10)

  Fixed-gantry cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), where the imaging hardware is fixed while the subject is continuously rotated 360° in the horizontal position, has implications for building compact and affordable ...

• Technical Note: Real-time image-guided adaptive radiotherapy of a rigid target for a prototype fixed beam radiotherapy system. 

  Liu, P; Nguyen, DT; Feain, I; O'Brien, R; Keall, P; Booth, JT (Wiley, 2018-10)

  PURPOSE: Fixed beam radiotherapy systems utilize couch movement and rotation instead of gantry rotation in order to simplify linear accelerator design. We investigate the ability to deliver fixed beam treatments with the ...

• An augmented correlation framework for the estimation of tumour translational and rotational motion during external beam radiotherapy treatments using intermittent monoscopic x-ray imaging and an external respiratory signal. 

  Nguyen, DT; Booth, JT; Caillet, V; Hardcastle, N; Briggs, A; Hadad, C; Eade, T; O'Brien, R; Keall, PJ (IOPscience, 2018-10)

  Increasing evidence shows that intrafraction tumour motion monitoring must include both six degrees of freedom (6DoF): 3D translations and 3D rotations. Existing real-time algorithms for 6DoF target motion estimation ...

• An integrated general practice and pharmacy-based intervention to promote the use of appropriate preventive medications among individuals at high cardiovascular disease risk: Protocol for a cluster randomized controlled trial 

  Hayek, A; Joshi, R; Usherwood, T; Webster, R; Kaur, B; Saini, B; Armour, C; Krass, I; Laba, TL; Reid, C; Shiel, L; Hespe, C; Hersch, F; Jan, S; Lo, S; Peiris, D; Rodgers, A; Patel, A (BMC, 2016-09-16)

  © 2016 The Author(s). Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are responsible for significant morbidity, premature mortality, and economic burden. Despite established evidence that supports the use of preventive medications ...
