A 3D-printed jig enabled small-animal irradiation with clinical iridium-192
A 3D-printed jig delivered approximately uniform iridium-192 tumor dose, delayed tumor growth, and caused no observable short-term radiation toxicity in mice.

Neural model compresses proton Monte Carlo phase-space data while preserving dose accuracy
The neural model reduced phase-space storage from 3 gigabytes to 600 kilobytes while maintaining at least 89.9% gamma passing at 1%/1 mm.
Tissue heterogeneity substantially alters absorbed dose in intraoperative radiotherapy
Absorbed dose near the applicator varied markedly by tissue composition despite accurate Monte Carlo calculation by the treatment planning system.
Macro Monte Carlo accelerates very high energy electron dose calculation with high accuracy
A macro Monte Carlo framework reproduced reference dose calculations for very high energy electron beams up to 250 megaelectronvolts while improving computational efficiency by as much as twenty-sevenfold.
