About
Anusheel Munshi is a leading researcher in radiation oncology and medical physics, whose work focuses on enhancing the precision and safety of stereotactic radiotherapy. His major contributions center on the mathematical modeling and clinical correction of six-dimensional (6D) patient positioning errors—encompassing translational shifts and rotational deviations like pitch, roll, and yaw. In his highly cited 2018 paper (19 citations), Munshi derived a novel methodology to reduce complex 6D positional inaccuracies into simpler 3D linear shifts, a formulation that has become foundational for frameless stereotactic treatments. He further advanced the field by calculating rotational-error-corrected setup margins using kV cone-beam CT and intrafraction imaging, providing spatial assessments for both coplanar and noncoplanar geometries (14 citations). Munshi has also critically evaluated emerging technologies, notably disproving the geometric feasibility of 4π radiotherapy on linear accelerators in a 2019 paper (7 citations), and has contributed to debates on surgical oncology, cautioning against the overuse of robotic surgery. With a total of over 50 citations across his most influential works, Munshi’s research directly improves treatment accuracy and patient safety in high-precision radiotherapy.
