    • An investigation into the use of mmctp to tune accelerator source parameters and testing its clinical application 

      Conneely, Elaine; Alexander, Andrew; Stroian, Gabriella; Seuntjens, Jan; Foley, Mark J. (Wiley-Blackwell, 2013-03-01)
      This paper presents an alternative method to tune Monte Carlo electron beam parameters to match measured data using a minimal set of variables in order to reduce the model setup time prior to clinical implementation of the ...

    • Monte carlo investigation of collapsed versus rotated imrt plan verification 

      Conneely, Elaine; Alexander, Andrew; Ruo, Russell; Chung, Eunah; Seuntjens, Jan; Foley, Mark J. (Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-05-01)
      IMRT QA requires, among other tests, a time-consuming process of measuring the absorbed dose, at least to a point, in a high-dose, low-dose-gradient region. Some clinics use a technique of measuring this dose with all beams ...

    • Objective assessment of image quality vi: imaging in radiation therapy 

      Barrett, Harrison H; Kupinski, Matthew A; Müeller, Stefan; Halpern, Howard J; Morris, John C; Dwyer, Róisín M. (IOP Publishing, 2013-11-07)
      Earlier work on objective assessment of image quality (OAIQ) focused largely on estimation or classification tasks in which the desired outcome of imaging is accurate diagnosis. This paper develops a general framework for ...
