About
Alessia Surgo is a leading researcher in radiation oncology, with a specialized focus on stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for lung cancer. Her work centers on improving the precision and safety of image-guided radiotherapy, particularly through the analysis of translational and rotational localization errors in cone-beam CT (CBCT)-based treatments. Her most-cited paper, "Translational and rotational localization errors in cone-beam CT based image-guided lung stereotactic radiotherapy" (2016, 32 citations), provides critical insights into the geometric uncertainties that can compromise tumor targeting and normal tissue sparing. By quantifying these errors, Surgo has contributed to the development of more accurate treatment protocols, enhancing the efficacy of lung SBRT while minimizing radiation-induced toxicity. Her research is instrumental in advancing adaptive radiotherapy strategies, where real-time imaging corrections improve patient outcomes. With a growing citation impact, Surgo’s work is widely recognized among clinicians and physicists seeking to refine image-guided techniques. Her contributions underscore the importance of rigorous error analysis in modern radiotherapy, making her a key figure in the ongoing effort to personalize and optimize cancer care.
