The efficacy of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has been well demonstrated.
However, it presents unique challenges for accurate planning and delivery especially in the …

This review considers the management of motion in photon radiation therapy. An overview is
given of magnitudes and variability of motion of various structures and organs, and how the …

The era of real‐time radiotherapy is upon us. Robotic and gimbaled linac tracking are
clinically established technologies with the clinical realization of couch tracking in …

Purpose A study of real-time adaptive radiotherapy systems was performed to test the
hypothesis that, across delivery systems and institutions, the dosimetric accuracy is …

In this review, image guidance and motion management in radiotherapy for lung cancer is
discussed. Motion characteristics of lung tumours and image guidance techniques to obtain …

Abstract In 2016 and 2017, the 8th and 9th 4D treatment planning workshop took place in
Groningen (the Netherlands) and Vienna (Austria), respectively. This annual workshop …

We present two new Monte Carlo sources for the DOSXYZnrc code, which can be used to
compute dose distributions due to continuously variable beam configurations. These …

Tumors in thoracic and upper abdomen regions such as lungs, liver, pancreas, esophagus,
and breast move due to respiration. Respiration-induced motion introduces uncertainties in …

Purpose: The purpose of this work was to clarify the interactions between the parameters
used in the γ index with the surface‐based distance method, which itself can be viewed as a …

To calculate the yield of direct DNA damage induced by low energy electrons using Monte
Carlo generated microdosimetric spectra at the nanometer scale and examine the influence …
