Accepting students per funding availability.
Research Interests & Expertise
- Developing imaging tools to improve radiation therapy planning co- registration of studies for the accurate determination of tumor and target margins and critical organs at risk (OAR), including the use of MRI-PET, PET-CT, and SPECT-CT.
- Developing technology for image guided brachytherapy (IGBT), including 3D imaging systems (CT and MRI) for confirming applicator placement, and novel applicator designs that allow patients to be treated with minimal anesthesia (non-OR).
- Investigating radiobiological considerations for Hypofractionated and Stereotactic Radiosurgery treatment delivery.
- Designing new arc based treatment delivery approaches that incorporate modulation (gantry speed, dose rate, and MLC) for conformality, and 3D/CBCT for improved target positioning.
