We further enhance this procedure with simulation techniques to account for uncertainties in the data for treatment plans. The proposed approach to plan evaluation provides a tool to support radiotherapy treatment planners in their task to determine the best possible radiotherapy treatment for cancer ...

(Magnetic Resonance Imaging–Guided Versus Computed Tomography–Guided Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer), MRI guidance more than halved the incidence of grade 2 or higher physician-reported genitourinary toxicity within 90 days of the procedure, which fell from 47.1% with CT to 22.4%...
Regardless, these forms of image guidance would require an invasive procedure to place intraprostatic markers and potential x-ray exposure to quantify and track motion, which are not risk free.36,37 Furthermore, ultimately, these methods rely on tracking an indirect marker of prostate motion ...
Alternatively, intraoperative planning can be accomplished with the assistance of a physicist in the operating room allowing for real-time modification of the treatment plan at the time of the procedure. Other recent developments have improved the staging and treatment planning for prostate cancer. ...

Neurovascular bundle (NVB) and internal pudendal artery (IPA) sparing during magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) for prostate cancer aims for preservation of erectile function. Our present workflow involves daily online contouring and re-planning on a 1.5 T MR-linac, as alternative to co...
Current image-guided prostate radiotherapy often relies on the use of implanted fiducial markers (FMs) or transducers for target localization. Fiducial or transducer insertion requires an invasive procedure that adds cost and risks for bleeding, infection and discomfort to some patients. We are developi...
