Stanley H Benedict,Kamil M. Yenice,David S Followill,James M. Galvin,William H. Hinson,Brian D. Kavanagh,Paul J. Keall,Michael Lovelock,Sanford L. Meeks,Lech Papiez,Thomas G. Purdie,R Sadagopan,Michael C. Schell,Bill J. Salter,David Schlesinger,Almon S. Shiu,Timothy D. Solberg,Danny Y. Song,Volker W. Stieber,Robert Timmerman,Wolfgang A. Tomé,Dirk Verellen,Lu Wang,Fang-Fang Yin +23 more
TL;DR: The task group report includes a review of the literature to identify reported clinical findings and expected outcomes for this treatment modality.
Journal ArticleDOI
IMRT commissioning: Multiple institution planning and dosimetry comparisons, a report from AAPM Task Group 119
Gary A. Ezzell,Jay Burmeister,Nesrin Dogan,Thomas LoSasso,James Mechalakos,Dimitris Mihailidis,Andrea Molineu,Jatinder R. Palta,Chester R. Ramsey,Bill J. Salter,Jie Shi,Ping Xia,Ning J. Yue,Ying Xiao +13 more
TL;DR: AAPM Task Group 119 has produced quantitative confidence limits as baseline expectation values for IMRT commissioning and locally derived confidence limits that substantially exceed these baseline values may indicate the need for improved IM RT commissioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quality assurance for computed-tomography simulators and the computed-tomography-simulation process: report of the AAPM Radiation Therapy Committee Task Group No. 66.
Sasa Mutic,Jatinder R. Palta,Elizabeth Butker,Indra J. Das,M. Saiful Huq,Leh Nien Dick Loo,Bill J. Salter,Cynthia H. McCollough,Jacob Van Dyk +8 more
TL;DR: This document presents recommendations of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine for quality assurance of computed-tomography- (CT) simulators and CT-simulation process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Daily ultrasound-based image-guided targeting for radiotherapy of upper abdominal malignancies.
Martin Fuss,Bill J. Salter,Sean X. Cavanaugh,Cristina Fuss,Amir Sadeghi,Clifton D. Fuller,Ardow Ameduri,James M. Hevezi,Terence S. Herman,Charles R. Thomas +9 more
TL;DR: The capability of the presented method to improve target alignment was assessed in 15 patients by comparing the organ and fiducial position between the respective treatment simulation CT with a control CT study after US targeting in the CT suite, and resulted in statistically significant improvements in patient setup.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repositioning accuracy of a commercially available double-vacuum whole body immobilization system for stereotactic body radiation therapy.
Martin Fuss,Bill J. Salter,Premavathy Rassiah,Dennis A. Cheek,Sean X. Cavanaugh,Terence S. Herman +5 more
TL;DR: While the measured variability in patient and target setup provided clinically acceptable setup accuracy in the vast majority of cases, larger setup deviations were occasional observed and constitute a potential for partial target underdosing warranting, in the authors' opinion, a pre-delivery positional assessment procedure.
