Radiotherapy beyond cancer: target localization in real-time MRI and treatment planning for cardiac radiosurgery.
Published 2014-12-01PURPOSE: Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia that affects millions of patients world-wide. AFib is usually treated with minimally invasive, time consuming catheter ablation techniques. While ...Open AccessArticle -
Technical Note: A novel leaf sequencing optimization algorithm which considers previous underdose and overdose events for MLC tracking radiotherapy.
Published 2016-01-01PURPOSE: Multileaf collimator (MLC) tracking radiotherapy is complex as the beam pattern needs to be modified due to the planned intensity modulation as well as the real-time target motion. The target motion cannot be ...Open AccessArticle -
Magnetization curves of sintered heavy tungsten alloys for applications in MRI-guided radiotherapy
Published 2014-06-01PURPOSE: Due to the current interest in MRI-guided radiotherapy, the magnetic properties of the materials commonly used in radiotherapy are becoming increasingly important. In this paper, measurement results for the ...Open AccessArticle -
