OAR-Weighted Dice Score: A spatially aware, radiosensitivity aware metric for target structure contour quality assessment
Lucas McCullum, Kareem A. Wahid, Barbara Marquez +1
The Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) is the current de facto standard to determine agreement between a reference segmentation and one generated by manual / auto-contouring approac…
Mimicking large spot-scanning radiation fields for proton FLASH preclinical studies with a robotic motion platform
Fada Guan, Dadi Jiang, Xiaochun Wang +12
Previously, a synchrotron-based horizontal proton beamline (87.2 MeV) was successfully commissioned to deliver radiation doses in FLASH and conventional dose rate modes to small fi…
On the acceptance, commissioning, and quality assurance of electron FLASH units
Allison Palmiero, Kevin Liu, Julie Colnot +15
Background & Purpose: FLASH or ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) radiation therapy (RT) has gained attention in recent years for its ability to spare normal tissues relative to conventio…
A molecular dynamics simulation of the abrupt changes in the thermodynamic properties of water after formation of nano-bubbles / nano-cavities induced by passage of charged particles
Ramin Abolfath, Niayesh Afshordi, Sohrab Rahvar +6
We present a multi-scale formalism that accounts for the formation of nano-scale bubbles/cavities owing to a burst of water molecules after the passage of high energy charged parti…
Development of novel ionization chambers for reference dosimetry in electron FLASH radiotherapy
Kevin Liu, Shannon Holmes, Ahtesham Ullah Khan +4
The aim of this study was to optimize the design and performance of parallel plate ion chambers for use in ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) dosimetry applications, and evaluate their po…
Characterization of a novel time-resolved, real-time scintillation dosimetry system for ultra-high dose rate radiation therapy applications
Alexander Baikalov, Daline Tho, Kevin Liu +3
Background: Scintillation dosimetry has promising qualities for ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) radiotherapy (RT), but no system has shown compatibility with mean dose rates ($\bar{DR}…
The status and challenges for prostate SBRT treatments in United States proton therapy centers: An NRG Oncology practice survey
Jiajian Shen, Paige A. Taylor, Carlos E. Vargas +8
A survey was designed to inquire about the practice of proton SBRT treatment for prostate cancer. The survey was distributed to all 30 proton therapy centers in the United States t…
