About
Karim Boudam is a radiation oncology researcher whose work focuses on improving the precision of lung cancer radiotherapy, particularly through advanced imaging and motion management. His key research area centers on stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR), where he investigates techniques to enhance tumor targeting accuracy while minimizing damage to healthy tissue. Boudam’s major contribution lies in evaluating the reliability of breath-hold computed tomography (CT) for treatment planning, specifically comparing tumor position during breath-hold versus free breathing. His 2014 study, "Accuracy of Breath-hold CT in Treatment Planning for Lung Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy," demonstrated the utility of the Abches breathing monitoring device in reducing respiratory motion errors, a critical challenge in lung SABR. This work, cited 2 times, provides foundational evidence for integrating breath-hold techniques into clinical workflows, directly impacting patient safety and treatment efficacy. Boudam’s research bridges the gap between technological innovation and practical application, offering actionable insights for clinicians seeking to optimize radiotherapy delivery. His dedication to refining motion management strategies underscores his role in advancing precision oncology, making his contributions valuable for students and researchers exploring the intersection of imaging, physics, and cancer care.
