About
Parag J. Parikh is a leading figure in the field of radiation oncology, with a primary focus on advancing the precision and safety of real-time radiotherapy. His work centers on the clinical implementation of motion management technologies, particularly multileaf collimator (MLC) tracking, which allows for the dynamic adaptation of radiation beams to account for tumor movement during treatment. Parikh’s major contributions include chairing the AAPM Task Group 264, whose seminal report (cited 92 times) established the first comprehensive guidelines for the safe clinical deployment of MLC tracking. This work has been instrumental in transitioning MLC tracking from a research concept into a clinically viable tool, directly improving treatment accuracy for cancers affected by respiratory motion. His research has helped shape the standard of care for real-time adaptive radiotherapy, ensuring that emerging technologies are both effective and safe. With a strong record of influential publications, Parikh is recognized as a key architect of modern motion management strategies, bridging the gap between engineering innovation and patient-centered clinical practice.
