A Digital Twin Framework for Adaptive Treatment Planning in Radiotherapy
Chih-Wei Chang, Sri Sai Akkineni, Mingzhe Hu +7
The development of a digital twin (DT) framework for fast online adaptive proton therapy planning in prostate stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) with dominant intraprostati…
Stereotactic Arrhythmia Radioablation for Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia: A Narrative Review and Exploratory Pooled Analysis of Clinical Outcomes and Toxicity
Keyur D. Shah, Chih-Wei Chang, Sibo Tian +6
Purpose: Stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation (STAR) is a non-invasive salvage therapy for refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT), especially in patients ineligible for catheter…
A Comparative Dosimetric Study of Proton and Photon Therapy in Stereotactic Arrhythmia Radioablation for Ventricular Tachycardia
Keyur D. Shah, Chih-Wei Chang, Pretesh Patel +8
Purpose: VT is a life-threatening arrhythmia commonly treated with catheter ablation; however, some cases remain refractory to conventional treatment. STAR has emerged as a non-inv…
An Adaptive Proton FLASH Therapy Using Modularized Pin Ridge Filter
Ahmal Jawad Zafar, Xiaofeng Yang, Zachary Diamond +4
In this paper, we proposed a method to optimize adaptive proton FLASH therapy (ADP FLASH) using modularized pin ridge filters (pRFs) by recycling module pins from the initial plan…
Using Modularized Pin Ridge Filter in Proton FLASH Planning for Liver Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy
Chaoqiong Ma, Xiaofeng Yang, Yinan Wang +3
We previously developed a FLASH planning framework for streamlined pin-ridge-filter (pin-RF) design, demonstrating its feasibility for single-energy proton FLASH planning. In this…
Adaptive Proton Therapy Using CBCT-Guided Digital Twins
Chih-Wei Chang, Zhen Tian, Richard L. J. Qiu +8
This study aims to develop a digital twin (DT) framework to enhance adaptive proton stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for prostate cancer. Prostate SBRT has emerged as a l…
