Surface Guided Radiation Therapy provides a comprehensive overview
of optical surface image guidance systems for radiation therapy. It
serves as an introductory teaching resource for students and
trainees, and a valuable reference for medical physicists,
physicians, radiation therapists, and administrators who wish to
incorporate surface guided radiation therapy (SGRT) into their
clinical practice. This is the first book dedicated to the
principles and practice of SGRT, featuring: Chapters authored by an
internationally represented list of physicists, radiation
oncologists and therapists, edited by pioneers and experts in SGRT
Covering the evolution of localization systems and their role in
quality and safety, current SGRT systems, practical guides to
commissioning and quality assurance, clinical applications by
anatomic site, and emerging topics including skin mark-less setups.
Several dedicated chapters on SGRT for intracranial radiosurgery
and breast, covering technical aspects, risk assessment and
outcomes. Jeremy Hoisak, PhD, DABR is an Assistant Professor in the
Department of Radiation Medicine and Applied Sciences at the
University of California, San Diego. Dr. Hoisak's clinical
expertise includes radiosurgery and respiratory motion management.
Adam Paxton, PhD, DABR is an Assistant Professor in the Department
of Radiation Oncology at the University of Utah. Dr. Paxton's
clinical expertise includes patient safety, motion management,
radiosurgery, and proton therapy. Benjamin Waghorn, PhD, DABR is
the Director of Clinical Physics at Vision RT. Dr. Waghorn's
research interests include intensity modulated radiation therapy,
motion management, and surface image guidance systems. Todd
Pawlicki, PhD, DABR, FAAPM, FASTRO, is Professor and Vice-Chair for
Medical Physics in the Department of Radiation Medicine and Applied
Sciences at the University of California, San Diego. Dr. Pawlicki
has published extensively on quality and safety in radiation
therapy. He has served on the Board of Directors for the American
Society for Radiology Oncology (ASTRO) and the American Association
of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM).
