About
K. Zourari is a medical physicist whose research has made significant contributions to the field of stereotactic radiosurgery dosimetry, with a particular focus on the CyberKnife robotic radiosurgery system. Their work centers on the precise measurement of small radiation fields — a technically demanding area where conventional dosimetric methods can introduce substantial errors if not carefully corrected. Among their most influential contributions is a 2012 study (64 citations) rigorously determining correction factors for microchamber and diode detectors when measuring output factors of the CyberKnife's iris collimator, providing the community with critical practical guidance for accurate small-field dosimetry. Building on this, their 2010 work (61 citations) was an early and notable effort to implement the then-recently proposed nonstandard field dosimetric formalism — now widely adopted internationally — within a clinical robotic radiosurgery environment, helping bridge theoretical framework and practical clinical application. Their 2018 study on total system error analysis, drawing on over a decade of institutional data, further demonstrates a commitment to long-term quality assurance and clinical safety evaluation. Collectively, Zourari's research has provided the medical physics community with evidence-based tools to improve the accuracy, safety, and reliability of robotic radiosurgery treatments.
