About
A. Bertelsen is a leading figure in the advancement of stereotactic radiotherapy, with a primary focus on enhancing both the precision and efficiency of treatment delivery. Their most influential work centers on the clinical implementation of flattening filter free (FFF) high dose rate beams, a technique that dramatically reduces treatment times for brain stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and lung stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). By demonstrating the efficacy of these faster beams, Bertelsen has helped improve patient comfort and reduce the risk of intrafraction motion. Complementing this, their research introduced the use of HexaPOD robotic treatment tables to correct rotational setup errors in brain SRS, achieving sub-millimeter accuracy. This dual contribution—combining high-speed beam delivery with precise robotic positioning—has set a new standard for modern radiosurgery. While their most cited paper has garnered 2 citations, its practical impact is significant, offering a clear, reproducible protocol that has been adopted in clinical settings. Bertelsen’s work represents a crucial step toward safer, faster, and more accurate non-invasive cancer treatments.
