About

Dimitre Hristov is a leading researcher in the integration of advanced imaging and robotics for precision radiation therapy. His work centers on real-time, soft-tissue image guidance, particularly using ultrasound, to improve the accuracy of radiotherapy delivery. Hristov’s major contributions include the development of a telerobotic ultrasound system capable of imaging soft tissues during beam delivery, enabling intrafractional monitoring of target motion. His 2010 paper on this concept has garnered 69 citations, underscoring its foundational impact. He has further advanced this technology for prostate and liver stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR), demonstrating robotic 4D ultrasound guidance that avoids beam interference. His 2015 review on ultrasound in radiation therapy (45 citations) is a key resource in the field. Hristov has also contributed to frameless image-guided radiosurgery for arteriovenous malformations, combining C-arm CT and digital subtraction angiography. His work bridges engineering and clinical practice, offering practical solutions for real-time, non-ionizing imaging that enhances treatment precision and reduces toxicity.
