Finite Element Method-Based Hybrid MRI/CBCT Generation to Improve Liver Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Targets Localization Accuracy.
Journal article IEEE Trans Radiat Plasma Med Sci · March 2025 Cone-beam CT (CBCT) is commonly used in treatment imaging, but its limited soft tissue contrast presents challenges for liver tumor localization. As a result, indirect localization methods relying on the liver's boundary are commonly utilized, which have l ...

Journal article Cancer Res · October 1, 2021 Chromosomal translocations generate oncogenic fusion proteins in approximately one-third of sarcomas, but how these proteins promote tumorigenesis is not well understood. Interestingly, some translocation-driven cancers exhibit dramatic clinical responses ...

Journal article J Clin Invest · January 4, 2021 Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) kills more children than any other type of brain tumor. Despite clinical trials testing many chemotherapeutic agents, palliative radiotherapy remains the standard treatment. Here, we utilized Cre/loxP technology to s ...
