About
Ana Isabel Bejarano Buele is a medical physicist whose work centers on advancing precision in proton therapy, with a particular focus on image-guided systems and patient alignment. Her research addresses the critical challenge of achieving sub-millimeter and sub-degree accuracy in Pencil Beam Scanning (PBS) proton therapy, a modality that demands even tighter tolerances than conventional photon radiosurgery. In her most-cited study, published in 2023, Bejarano Buele detailed the implementation, acceptance, and commissioning of an independent robotic image-guided system at a proton therapy center. This work provided a comprehensive framework for integrating such systems into clinical workflows, including rigorous test procedures and results—a vital contribution to ensuring safe and effective treatment delivery. While her citation count is still growing, reflecting the early stage of her career, this paper has already garnered attention as a practical guide for proton therapy centers adopting image-guided technologies. Her contributions are foundational for improving targeting accuracy in cancer treatment, positioning her as a promising voice in the field of radiation oncology physics.
