About
R. Price is a medical physicist and radiation oncology researcher whose work centers on stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and advanced radiotherapy delivery systems, with a particular focus on prostate cancer and hepatic lesion treatment. Price has made meaningful contributions to the comparative evaluation of robotic and conventional radiotherapy platforms, most notably examining the clinical and dosimetric distinctions between CyberKnife robotic arm systems and traditional gantry-based linear accelerators. Their most-cited work, a 2016 comparison of robotic versus gantry SBRT for prostate cancer (28 citations), addressed a clinically significant question as SBRT continues to emerge as an efficient treatment modality for this highly prevalent malignancy. Price has also investigated the expanded capabilities of the CyberKnife M6 system, exploring how its multileaf collimator (MLC) integration enhances dosimetric quality for hepatic lesion treatment (11 citations), effectively bridging the gap between radiosurgery and conventionally fractionated radiotherapy. Earlier work examined MLC-based CyberKnife delivery for prostate cancer, demonstrating a sustained research focus in this area. Collectively, Price's contributions offer practical guidance for clinical decision-making in modern radiation oncology treatment planning.
