Automated treatment planning of postmastectomy radiotherapy Open

Kelly Kisling, Lifei Zhang, Simona F. Shaitelman, David W. Anderson, Tselane Thebe , et al. · 2019

Purpose Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women globally and radiation therapy is a cornerstone of its treatment. However, there is an enormous shortage of radiotherapy staff, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. This s…

A risk assessment of automated treatment planning and recommendations for clinical deployment Open

Kelly Kisling, Jennifer L. Johnson, Hannah Simonds, Lifei Zhang, Anuja Jhingran , et al. · 2019

Purpose To assess the risk of failure of a recently developed automated treatment planning tool, the radiation planning assistant ( RPA ), and to determine the reduction in these risks with implementation of a quality assurance ( QA ) prog…

A snapshot of medical physics practice patterns Open

Kelly Kisling, Rachel Ger, Tucker Netherton, Carlos Cárdenas, Constance A. Owens , et al. · 2018

A large number of surveys have been sent to the medical physics community addressing many clinical topics for which the medical physicist is, or may be, responsible. Each survey provides an insight into clinical practice relevant to the me…
