Ultrasonography is a widespread intraoperative imaging modality. However, it suffers from several shortcomings e.g. its dependance on the skills of the operator for the image quality. To overcome this shortcoming, Gumprecht et al. [1] recently proposed a new robot-assisted flat-panel ultrasound device for continuous intraoperative imaging during laparoscopic tumor resection in urology. This device...
Algorithms for improving dosimetry plans for brachytherapy procedures have been developed. In particular, the algorithms focus on creating an optimized dosimetry plan automatically, as well as updating the plan in real time to compensate for errors in seed placements. The overall performance of the algorithms is compared with currently existing dosimetry planning software. The plans are particularly...
Precise and accurate dose delivery is critically important in external beam radiation therapy. In many cases target-volumes are stationary, but the problem arises when the tumors move significantly due to cardiac and respiratory motions. This is a case for tumors in lung, esophagus, pancreas, liver, prostate, breast, and other organs in thoracic and abdominal regions. In the article we have described...
