TL;DR
The developed phantom enables realistic, multimodal, and deformable end-to-end evaluation of MRgOART, supporting accurate assessment of DIR, adaptive planning, and dose delivery with real-time dosimetry.
The motorized attachment for SR3D acquisition reduced image variability and improved image quality, and may encourage broader use of sagittal reconstruction in HDR-BT, potentially improving patient outcomes.

This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of estimating patient positional errors during head-and-neck fixed-field intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) using a machine-learning (ML) regression models based on radiomics features of patient-transmitted fluence maps acquired by an electronic portal imaging devi...

Accurate patient-specific mean glandular dose (MGD) estimation in breast computed tomography (BCT) requires anatomically realistic models, but high-resolution patient-derived phantoms impose high computational demands on Monte Carlo (MC) dosimetry. We previously developed and validated an EGSnrc-based framework for syn...

Background/Objectives: Online adaptive radiotherapy (oART) re-optimizes treatment on the anatomy of the day, but automatically generated plans require dosimetric verification and dose–volume assessment. We performed an end-to-end validation of the Varian Ethos workflow for prostate cancer, including cross-adaptation be...
