Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Nevin McVicar"
- Nevin McVicar's research primarily focuses on improving radiotherapy techniques, especially through the implementation of deep learning and auto-segmentation methods for contouring organs at risk in prostate and bladder cancer therapies.
- His studies have revealed significant insights into utilizing advanced imaging techniques and therapies, including volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and adaptive radiotherapy, to enhance treatment efficacy while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues.
- McVicar's work also extends to investigating the impact of drug interactions on tumor biology, such as the effects of topiramate on glioblastoma acidification and the role of imaging technologies in monitoring metabolic changes during treatments.
