There are two main types of radiation therapy. In external radiation therapy a beam of radiation is directed from outside the body at the cancer. In internal radiation therapy, called brachytherapy or implant therapy, where a source of radioactivity is surgically placed inside the body near the ...

The process of IMRT requires setting a few basic parameters such as the number of beams and the starting beam locations. The physician defines the target regions and the sensitive regions nearby, along with limits and goals for the doses of each region. The dosimetrist then adjusts the star...

Brachytherapy is another radiation therapy where a clinician implants radioactive material temporarily or permanently near or inside the target object. It is a type of internal radiation and is used to deliver higher doses of radiation in a more specific and smaller area that cannot be possible wi...
The dose deposited outside of the treatment field during external photon beam radiation therapy treatment, also known as out-of-field dose, is the subject of extensive study as it may be associated with a higher risk of developing a second cancer and could have deleterious effects on the immun...
Optoacoustic imaging may also have a unique role in quality assurance for proton therapy [76]. Confocal microscopy Confocal microscopy is a non-invasive imaging technique capable of cellular-level resolution [13, 77]. To obtain confocal images, a near-infrared (830 nm), low-power laser is ...
With the advancement of treatment modalities in radiation therapy for cancer patients, outcomes have improved, but at the cost of increased treatment plan complexity and planning time. The accurate prediction of dose distributions would alleviate this is
