About
Dr. R. Ricotti is a leading figure in the field of medical physics, with a specialized focus on advancing proton therapy for ocular tumors. Their most impactful work centers on the development of innovative platforms for patient positioning and motion monitoring, particularly in the challenging context of non-dedicated beamlines. This research, detailed in their highly cited 2019 paper, addresses a critical bottleneck in ocular proton therapy: ensuring sub-millimeter precision for treating intraocular malignancies without the need for costly, dedicated treatment rooms. By engineering robust solutions for real-time tracking and alignment, Dr. Ricotti has significantly enhanced treatment accuracy and patient safety, directly expanding access to this precise form of radiotherapy. Their contributions are pivotal for clinics seeking to repurpose existing infrastructure for ocular treatments, making them a key innovator in the practical application of proton therapy. With 11 citations on their seminal work, Dr. Ricotti’s research continues to influence best practices and inspire new approaches to motion management in particle therapy.
