Circulating Lymphocytes Preservation in Lung Cancer Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy with Ultra-Fast Proton Delivery Using Modularized Pin Ridge Filters
Duncan Bohannon, Ahmal Jawad Zafar, Sibo Tian +9
Purpose: Radiation-induced lymphopenia is an increasingly recognized toxicity in lung radiotherapy and has been linked to radiation exposure to circulating lymphocytes (CL). In int…
Clinically Interpretable Survival Risk Stratification in Head and Neck Cancer Using Bayesian Networks and Markov Blankets
Keyur D. Shah, Ibrahim Chamseddine, Xiaohan Yuan +8
Purpose: To identify a clinically interpretable subset of survival-relevant features in HN cancer using Bayesian Network (BN) and evaluate its prognostic and causal utility. Method…
Photon-Counting CT in Cancer Radiotherapy: Technological Advances and Clinical Benefits
Keyur D. Shah, Jun Zhou, Justin Roper +4
Photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) marks a significant advancement over conventional energy-integrating detector (EID) CT systems. This review highlights PCCT's superior sp…
Measurement of the time structure of FLASH beams using prompt gamma rays and secondary neutrons as surrogates
Serdar Charyyev, Ruirui Liu, Xiaofeng Yang +5
We aim to investigate the feasibility of online monitoring of irradiation time (IRT) and scan time for FLASH radiotherapy using a pixelated semiconductor detector. Measurements of…
Characterization of 250 MeV protons from Varian ProBeam pencil beam scanning system for FLASH radiation therapy
Serdar Charyyev, Chih-Wei Chang, Mingyao Zhu +3
Recently, shoot-through proton FLASH has been proposed where the highest energy is extracted from the cyclotron to maximize the dose rate (DR). Even though our proton pencil beam s…
Synthetic MRI-aided Head-and-Neck Organs-at-Risk Auto-Delineation for CBCT-guided Adaptive Radiotherapy
Xianjin Dai, Yang Lei, Tonghe Wang +7
Purpose: Organ-at-risk (OAR) delineation is a key step for cone-beam CT (CBCT) based adaptive radiotherapy planning that can be a time-consuming, labor-intensive, and subject-to-va…
