Real-time In-vivo Imaging during Lung Cancer Radiotherapy [ 2017 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr ChunChien Shieh (Principal investigator)

Brief description Lung tumours move in clinically significant and unpredicable ways. Current radiotherapy is limited by the lack of real-time imaging to monitor tumour motion. The aim of this project is to develop and clinically implement Real-time In-vivo Imaging to enable motion-adaptive radiotherapy and thereby improve treatment outcomes. Real-time In-vivo Imaging is a software technology that will be applicalbe to 90% of modern radiotherapy systems globally and will enable wide access to advanced cancer care.
