Considering the Oxygen Effect : Further Development of a Volumetric Model of Tumor Response to Radiation Therapy for Cervical Cancer
(East Carolina University, 2014)Mathematical modeling of tumor response to radiation therapy (RT) has great potential for designing therapy plans that are more personalized, more adaptive, and more reliable for outcome predictions. A preexisting model ... -
Four-Dimensional In Vivo Dosimetry By Dose Reconstruction Using Continuous Epid Images And Phase Sorting Method
(East Carolina University, 2015)In vivo dosimetry is widely used for patient specific dose evaluation and treatment verification in external beam radiation therapy (EBRT). There is a growing interest in using an electronic portal imaging device (EPID) ... -
Protection and Sensitization of Human Cells to Proton Radiation by Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles
(East Carolina University, 2017-07-17)In radiation therapy for the treatment of cancer, there is demand for novel approaches that will improve tumor cell killing while protecting healthy tissue. One such approach that has shown considerable promise is the ...
