This work examines the measured lung damages using different effort correction techniques. Functional effort correction method is examined with different parameters and [...]

The purpose of this thesis is to validate the cranial and multiple brain METS module in Brainlab Elements treatment planning system (TPS) and document the validation proc [...]

The study compares the skin-sparing optimization techniques used in Eclipse and RayStation TPS to inform guidelines and treatment protocols for VMAT head and neck cancer [...]

A work focused on creating a model which simulates patient treatment shift information. This is useful for the purpose of exploring the effects of motion on patient treat [...]

Representing the first study to employ Metabolic Activity Diffusion Imaging (MADI) within human brain cancer, this thesis serves as a demonstration of MADI's ability to p [...]

This thesis evaluates the use of deformable image registration (DIR) for dose accumulation in gynecological HDR brachytherapy. By comparing DIR-based and conservative met [...]

Computed tomography (CT) is a widely used diagnostic imaging modality which is also commonly used for radiation therapy simulation and planning. This work compares two co [...]

Lutetium-177 vipivotide tetraxetan (Lu-177 PSMA-617) therapy is an effective treatment for patients with metastatic prostate cancer, although with potential adverse effec [...]

The aim of this research is to utilize MRF techniques to characterize vascularization differences between healthy pancreas tissue and tumorous tissue. To do this, both he [...]

An effort correction technique for longitudinal lung studies using four-dimensional computed tomography is described. This new technique focuses on nondamaged regions and [...]
