Recent developments in radiotherapy therapy demand high computation powers to solve
challenging problems in a timely fashion in a clinical environment. The graphics processing …

Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is rapidly becoming an alternative to surgery for the
treatment of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer patients. Lung SBRT is administered in a …

The hybrid MRI-radiotherapy machines, like the MR-linac (Elekta AB, Stockholm, Sweden)
installed at the UMC Utrecht (Utrecht, The Netherlands), will be able to provide real-time …

The new era of hybrid MRI and linear accelerator machines, including the MR-linac currently
being installed in the University Medical Center Utrecht (Utrecht, The Netherlands), will be …

Purpose: The authors investigated the potential of optimized noncoplanar irradiation
trajectories for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) treatments of nasopharyngeal …

The MRI linear accelerator (MR-linac) that is currently being installed in the University
Medical Center Utrecht (Utrecht, The Netherlands), will be able to track the patient's target …

Non-coplanar radiation beams are often used in three-dimensional conformal and intensity
modulated radiotherapy to reduce dose to organs at risk (OAR) by geometric avoidance. In …

Proton therapy promises higher dose conformality in comparison with regular radiotherapy
techniques. Also, image guidance has an increasing role in radiotherapy and MRI is a prime …

Auxiliary variables are often used to model a convex piecewise linear function in the
framework of linear optimization. This work shows that such variables yield a block diagonal …

Purpose To enable fast online replanning for prostate radiotherapy with the inclusion of
interfraction rotations and translations and investigate the possibility for margin reduction via …
