01
DOI 10.1002/acm2.70854
Open DOI
General versus site specific quantile random forest models for virtual patient‐specific quality assurance of VMAT plans
Background: Modern radiotherapy techniques like volumetric‐modulated arc therapy (VMAT) require labor‐intensive patient‐specific quality assurance (PSQA) measurements, which for busy clinics pose a substantial workflow burden. Most of th...
02
DOI 10.1002/acm2.70863
Open DOI
Automated linac downtime tracking across 4 radiation oncology clinics within a single hospital system utilizing statistical process control
Background: Linear accelerator (linac) downtime disrupts clinical workflow and may delay patient treatment; however, downtime events are frequently undocumented or recorded in informal reporting systems. Data‐driven approaches using rout...
03
DOI 10.1002/acm2.70862
Open DOI
Machine learning predictors of post‐radiotherapy cardiotoxicity in a Latin American breast cancer cohort: Clinical risk factors outperform cardiac dosimetry
Background: Most evidence on post‐radiotherapy cardiotoxicity (CDT) derives from Global North cohorts, and the relative contribution of baseline clinical risk versus cardiac dosimetry remains poorly characterized in Latin American popula...
04
DOI 10.1002/acm2.70859
Open DOI
Development and validation of a pregnant phantom with adjustable fetal presentation for region‐specific fetal radiation dose assessment during pelvic radiography
Background: Accurate assessment of fetal radiation dose during diagnostic X‐ray examinations remains challenging because commercially available pregnancy phantoms do not adequately reproduce fetal anatomy or permit organ‐specific dose me...

DOI 10.1002/acm2.70865
Open DOI
Evaluation of online dose‐guided adaptive fractionation for intact prostate radiotherapy
Background: Dose‐guided adaptive fractionation (DGAF) was proposed as a simpler alternative of adaptive radiation therapy, using organ variation simulation for proof of concept. However, its dosimetric benefit using actual daily anatomy ...

DOI 10.1002/acm2.70860
Open DOI
Experimentally derived beam quality correction factors for PPC05 and razor nano ionization chambers in proton scanned beams based on graphite calorimetry
Background: Ionization chamber based reference dosimetry of proton beam requires the use of beam quality correction factors which are obtained experimentally or by Monte Carlo simulation and are available to users in codes of practice an...

Open DOI
Omission of lateral isocenter shifts in robust optimization of proton therapy treatment plans for prostate cancer
Background: Proton therapy is routinely used to treat prostate cancer using bilaterally opposed beams and can achieve lower dose to nearby organs‐at‐risk (OARs) such as the bladder and rectum. Pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton therapy of...
