The additive manufacturing (AM) process plays an important role in enabling cross-
disciplinary research in engineering and personalised medicine. Commercially available …

Background and purpose 3D printing is rapidly evolving and further assessment of materials
and technique is required for clinical applications. We evaluated 3D printed boluses with …

Background Computed tomography (CT) data used for patient radiotherapy planning can
nowadays be used to create 3D-printed boluses. Nevertheless, this methodology requires a …

Background & purpose Intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) of superficial lesions
requires pre-absorbing range shifter (RS) to deliver the more shallow spots. RS air gap …

Purpose This case series represents an initial experience with implementing 3‐dimensional
(3D) surface scanning, digital design, and 3D printing for bolus fabrication for patients with …

Purpose The objective of this work is to outline a framework for dosimetric characterization
that will comprehensively detail the clinical commissioning steps for 3D‐printed materials …

Chemical compounds such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and hydrogen silicone (HS)
have been extensively used for fabricating medical phantoms due to its human tissue …

Purpose We developed a thermoset shape memory bolus (shape memory bolus) made from
poly‐ε‐caprolactone (PCL) polymer. This study aimed to investigate whether the shape …

Purpose To establish a streamlined end‐to‐end test of a 6 degrees‐of‐freedom (6DoF)
robotic table using a 3D printed phantom for periodic quality assurance. Methods A 3D …

Objective 3D printing has seen use in many fields of imaging and radiation oncology, but
applications in (anthropomorphic) phantoms, especially for particle therapy, are still lacking …
