Imaging has become an essential tool in modern radiotherapy (RT), being used to plan dose
delivery prior to treatment and verify target position before and during treatment. Ultrasound …

External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is one of the curative treatment options for prostate
cancer patients. The aim of this treatment option is to irradiate tumor tissue, while sparing …

We conducted a canine study to investigate the in vivo feasibility of photoacoustic imaging
for intraoperative updates to brachytherapy treatment plans. A fiber coupled to a 1064-nm …

Abstract Real-time volumetric (4D) ultrasound has shown high potential for diagnostic and
therapy guidance tasks. One of the main drawbacks of ultrasound imaging to date is the …

External beam radiation therapy (EBRT) is included in the treatment regimen of the majority
of cancer patients. With the proliferation of hypofractionated radiotherapy treatment …

Simple Summary Ultrasound (US) imaging has been widely used for tumor tracking in image-
guided radiotherapy. The quality of US images using conventional probes highly depends …

Flexible array transducers can adapt to patient-specific geometries during real-time
ultrasound (US) image-guided therapy monitoring. This makes the system radiation-free and …

We are developing a cooperatively controlled robot system for image-guided radiation
therapy (IGRT) in which a clinician and robot share control of a 3-D ultrasound (US) probe …

We have previously developed a robotic ultrasound imaging system for motion monitoring in
abdominal radiation therapy. Owing to the slow speed of ultrasound image processing, our …

Four-dimensional (4D) ultrasound (US) is an attractive modality for image guidance due to
its real-time, non-ionizing, volumetric imaging capability with high soft tissue contrast …
