Motion management within two respiratory-gating windows: feasibility study of dual quasi-breath-hold technique in gated medical procedures.
Published 2014-11-01A dual quasi-breath-hold (DQBH) technique is proposed for respiratory motion management (a hybrid technique combining breathing-guidance with breath-hold task in the middle). The aim of this study is to test a hypothesis ...Open AccessArticle -
Three-dimensional MRI-linac intra-fraction guidance using multiple orthogonal cine-MRI planes.
Published 2013-07-01The introduction of integrated MRI-radiation therapy systems will offer live intra-fraction imaging. We propose a feasible low-latency multi-plane MRI-linac guidance strategy. In this work we demonstrate how interleaved ...Open AccessArticle -
The first patient treatment of electromagnetic-guided real time adaptive radiotherapy using MLC tracking for lung SABR.
Published 2016-10-01BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Real time adaptive radiotherapy that enables smaller irradiated volumes may reduce pulmonary toxicity. We report on the first patient treatment of electromagnetic-guided real time adaptive radiotherapy ...Open AccessArticle -
Multileaf Collimator Tracking Improves Dose Delivery for Prostate Cancer Radiation Therapy: Results of the First Clinical Trial.
Published 2015-08-01PURPOSE: To test the hypothesis that multileaf collimator (MLC) tracking improves the consistency between the planned and delivered dose compared with the dose without MLC tracking, in the setting of a prostate cancer ...Open AccessArticle -
Six degrees-of-freedom prostate and lung tumor motion measurements using Kilovoltage intrafraction monitoring.
Published 2015-02-01PURPOSE: Tumor positional uncertainty has been identified as a major issue that deteriorates the efficacy of radiation therapy. Tumor rotational movement, which is not well understood, can result in significant geometric ...Open AccessArticle
