DGMP toolkit finds no single method sufficient for stereotactic radiotherapy quality assurance
No single patient-specific quality assurance method covered all stereotactic radiotherapy risks, supporting combinations of measurement, independent calculation, imaging, and monitoring.
Failure analysis identifies target definition and motion management as key risks in stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation
Multimodal registration, motion management, and arrhythmia substrate definition were the highest-risk steps in stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation.
End-to-end test achieved high dosimetric agreement across adaptive platforms
A reusable phantom-based test verified simulation-omitted adaptive workflows on cone-beam computed tomography-guided and magnetic resonance-guided treatment systems.
Commercial lung phantom density errors can reduce target coverage by 3%
Lot-to-lot density variation in lung-equivalent inserts reduced planning target volume coverage by up to 3%, exceeding the stated clinical tolerance.
Low monitor unit deliveries show pulse-limited variability on a modern linear accelerator
Discrete pulse counts limited fractional monitor unit precision, particularly for high-dose-per-pulse flattening filter-free beams.
Reference beam data may streamline commissioning but cannot replace local validation
Reference datasets can support linear accelerator beam modelling, but machine-specific measurements remain essential for small fields, complex delivery, and long-term verification.
Explainable machine learning predicts structure-specific quality assurance performance in intensity-modulated radiotherapy
Anatomy- and dose-based machine learning predicted gamma passing rates accurately for organs at risk, but less reliably for target volumes.
