Stanford researchers at the Pratx Lab have developed a new trajectory reconstruction method for tracking moving sources labeled with positron-emitting radionuclides using PET.
Stanford researchers have developed a novel traveling wave accelerating structure which is a critical component of a particle accelerator. It has high shunt impedance similar to that of side-coupled standing-wave accelerating structure, but without its drawbacks.
Stanford researchers have demonstrated a new passive cavitation mapping algorithm based on sound localization of multiple scatters of cavitation. It shows improved resolution as compared to existing passive cavitation mapping algorithms based on a basic beamforming.
Several linear accelerator vendors have systems with single x-ray imager. A single x-ray imager presents a challenge to estimate 3D positioning. A method to estimate the 3D position using a single x-ray imager with prior information has been developed by Stanford researchers.
Real-time internal target position estimation is of high interest in radiotherapy, particularly with the recent development of robotic, linear accelerator, DMLC and couch-based systems which can continuously align the radiation beam with the target.
