About
Steven Morrill is a researcher whose work centers on advancing preclinical radiation therapy through innovative imaging and delivery systems. His primary research areas include small animal conformal radiation therapy, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging, and robotic-based image guidance. Morrill’s major contribution lies in the development and assessment of a 6D robot-based CBCT imaging system integrated into a small animal irradiator, as detailed in his most-cited paper, "Study of Image Qualities From 6D Robot–Based CBCT Imaging System of Small Animal Irradiator" (2017, 5 citations). This work systematically evaluated image quality parameters—such as spatial resolution, contrast, and noise—demonstrating the system’s capability to deliver precise, conformal radiation doses to targeted tumor volumes in preclinical models. By validating the imaging performance of this robotic platform, Morrill has helped bridge the gap between human and veterinary radiation oncology, enabling more accurate translational research. His findings support the use of advanced image-guided technologies to improve treatment planning and delivery in small animal studies, ultimately enhancing the reproducibility and relevance of preclinical cancer research.
