Percentile-based probabilistic optimization for systematic and random uncertainties in radiation therapy
Albin Fredriksson, Erik Engwall, Jenneke de Jong +1
Geometric uncertainty can degrade treatment quality in radiation therapy. While margins and robust optimization mitigate these effects, they provide only implicit control over clin…
Shoot-through layers in upright proton arcs unlock advantages in plan quality and range verification
Erik Engwall, Victor Mikhalev, Johan Sundström +2
Background: Upright proton therapy with compact delivery systems has the potential to reduce costs for treatments but could also lead to broadening of the beam penumbra due to ener…
A dosimetric and robustness analysis of Proton Arc Therapy (PAT) with Early Energy Layer and Spot Assignment (ELSA) for lung cancer versus conventional Intensity modulated therapy (IMPT)
Macarena S. Chocan, Sophie Wuyckens, Damien Dasnoy +6
Background and purpose: IMPT faces challenges in lung cancer treatment, like maintaining plan robustness for moving tumors against setup, range errors, and interplay effects. Proto…
Impact of limited temporal resolution on 4D Monte Carlo dose calculation for intensity modulated proton therapy
Ivar Bengtsson, Erik Engwall, Albin Fredriksson +1
The interplay between the beam delivery time structure and the patient motion makes 4D dose calculation (4DDC) important when treating moving tumors with intensity modulated proton…
Efficient proton arc optimization and delivery through energy layer pre-selection and post-filtering
S. Wuyckens, V. Wase, O. Marthin +7
Proton arc therapy (PAT) has emerged as a promising approach for improving dose distribution, but also enabling simpler and faster treatment delivery in comparison to conventional…
