About

Hassan Mostafavi is a leading figure in the field of medical physics and radiation oncology, with a primary focus on dynamic targeting and image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT). His seminal 2006 paper, "Dynamic targeting image-guided radiotherapy," with 54 citations, laid foundational principles for real-time tumor tracking during treatment, enabling more precise radiation delivery while sparing healthy tissue. Mostafavi's work has been instrumental in advancing motion management techniques, particularly for lung and abdominal cancers, where respiratory motion poses significant challenges. His contributions have directly influenced the development of integrated imaging and treatment systems, improving clinical outcomes and reducing side effects for patients worldwide. Beyond this landmark study, Mostafavi has authored numerous patents and technical reports that have shaped commercial IGRT platforms, bridging the gap between engineering innovation and clinical practice. His research continues to drive the evolution of adaptive radiotherapy, making him a key figure in the ongoing quest for safer, more effective cancer treatments.
