Recently, the authors proposed an analytical scheme to estimate the first order x-ray scatter by approximating the Klein-Nishina formula so that the first order scatter fluence is expressed as a function of the primary photon fluence on the detector.

By minimising the effect of irradiation on surrounding tissue, intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) can deliver higher, more effective doses to the targeted tumour site, minimising treatment-related morbidity and possibly improving cancer con

In many radiotherapy facilities radiotherapy portal verification is currently a subjective process based on the visual comparison of a treatment or portal image with a prescription or simulation image. The reliability of this process is unknown. We d

The primary purpose of this study was to assess the practical trade-offs between intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and dual-arc volumetric-modulated arc therapy (DA-VMAT) for locally advanced head and neck cancer (HNC).For 15 locally advan

An automated technique has been developed for the verification of treatment field size and shape in external beam radiation therapy. Portal images from film or digital on-line imaging system are analyzed, and basic parameters are derived to describe

Weighting factors, which define the contributions of individual voxels of a 3D object to individual projection elements (pixels) on the detector, are the basic elements required in iterative tomographic reconstructions from transmission projections.

Two complementary approaches to the noise suppression problem in on-line portal imaging have been analysed. Temporal filtering by image summation can substantially reduce the amount of noise in an image. In many cases, however, movements of the patie
