About
Dr. J Boyd is a leading expert in radiation oncology, with a focused research portfolio in stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for spinal and paraspinal tumours. Their most cited work, a 2015 study on inter- and intra-fraction motion in spinal SBRT, is a cornerstone contribution that systematically analyzed positioning errors using cone-beam CT and six-degree-of-freedom correction. This research demonstrated the critical dosimetric impact of even small positional changes on adjacent neural structures, directly informing safer and more precise treatment protocols. With 26 citations, this paper has become a key reference for clinicians and physicists seeking to minimize toxicity while maximizing tumor control. Dr. Boyd’s work bridges the gap between advanced imaging technology and clinical practice, providing actionable data on motion management that has shaped modern SBRT delivery. Their contributions are particularly notable for highlighting the necessity of rigorous positional verification in high-dose, steep-gradient treatments, making them a respected voice in the field of precision radiotherapy.
