About
Toon Roggen is a leading figure in radiation oncology, whose work is fundamentally shaping how motion management and adaptive therapy are integrated into clinical practice. His research focuses on the practical implementation of advanced radiotherapy techniques, particularly for managing intra-fraction breathing motion and adapting treatment plans to account for daily anatomical changes. Roggen is best known as the principal investigator of the landmark POP-ART RT study, a comprehensive international survey that has become the definitive resource for understanding global clinical patterns in real-time respiratory motion management and adaptive radiotherapy. The first part of this study, published in 2020, has already garnered 59 citations, underscoring its critical role in identifying barriers to adoption and guiding future technological and workflow developments. By systematically documenting how these complex technologies are actually used in clinics—and why they are not used more widely—Roggen provides an essential bridge between engineering innovation and patient care. His work empowers clinicians and physicists with the data needed to make informed decisions, ultimately helping to make precise, personalized radiation therapy a practical reality for more patients.
