Curated by me. Not a 100% inclusive list. Happy New Year to all fellow SDNers, misanthropes, reprobates, breadliners, hardliners, party-liners, board failers, board passers, alcoholics, teetotalers, probationary statuses, and ABR Online Learning Longitudinal (whatever) Assessment verifiers ad infinitum.
Y90 Embolization of Liver Cancer at Henry Ford Hospital
"One of the biggest growth areas in interventional radiology has been a subspecialty called interventional oncology; that's minimally invasive treatment of cancers that can be anywhere in the body."
Use of a Fully Self-contained Brain Radiotherapy System
"An astronomical figure of people needing treatments like this... Their vision is to roll this out to the entire world and have thousands of systems installed... We have a big neurosurgeon group... We have an agreement with Varian that we will not be at AAPM or ASTRO, but we're at the Radiosurgery Society meeting."
The Role of the Physicist in Proton Therapy
"New toxicity models... how do doses affect toxicity profiles and probabilities... we are giving physicians more information to make their clinical decisions... it's how some of the European countries are basing their whole decision-making process on treatments... Proton radiography will help localize patients during treatment."
Use of Machine Learning to Automate Radiotherapy Treatment Planning
"We train the algorithm... and create a new treatment plan for the patient with no human interaction besides pressing a 'play' button... we are using this automated planning clinically."
Artificial Intelligence Driven Adaptive Radiotherapy System Begins Treating Patients
"We could reduce the treated volume by 60% versus what it was to begin with... all this within a normal time slot."
Creating a Low-cost Radiotherapy System for the Developing World
The Nano-X system will use a fixed linac gantry and rotate the patient around the beam. This would lighten the weight of the system, reduce the need for room shielding, and cut the number of moving parts to lower costs and ease maintenance.
Proton Therapy Treatment at Northwestern Medicine
"We treat for about 15 and a half hours per day... we don't have a rigid schedule like you might in a standard radiotherapy clinic."
Clinical Use of the ViewRay MRIdian Linac System at Henry Ford
"This is completely changing how we think about radiation oncology... We had a patient where we treating the prostate with a 5mm margin... and then all of a sudden out of nowhere bowel gas pushes the prostate completely out of the treatment beam."
Artificial Intelligence Automatic Contouring and Segmentation For Radiotherapy
This example of a segmented prostate computed tomography (CT) scan being used to plan radiotherapy was created without any human intervention.
