About
Anatoly Rosenfeld is a pioneering figure in radiation dosimetry and medical physics, whose work has fundamentally advanced the precision and safety of radiotherapy. His key research areas include the development of novel silicon detectors for megavoltage photon and electron beams, as well as their application in stereotactic radiosurgery quality assurance. Rosenfeld’s major contribution lies in the invention of “edgeless” silicon diode detectors, which offer unprecedented angular independence and minimal perturbation of the radiation field. This innovation directly addresses a critical challenge in Cyberknife and other robotic radiosurgery systems, where accurate dose measurement is essential for patient safety. His 2018 study on quality assurance of Cyberknife using these detectors (14 citations) demonstrates the practical impact of his work, providing a robust method for verifying treatment delivery in complex, non-coplanar geometries. Beyond this, Rosenfeld has authored over 300 peer-reviewed papers, with his detector technologies now adopted in clinical settings worldwide. His achievements include leading the Centre for Medical Radiation Physics at the University of Wollongong and receiving international recognition for bridging the gap between semiconductor physics and clinical oncology.
