About
Mamoun Shehadeh is a leading medical physicist whose research centers on precision radiation dosimetry, small-field radiotherapy, and advanced detector validation for stereotactic radiosurgery systems. His most influential work provides a comprehensive, multi-detector comparison for output factor measurement in CyberKnife robotic radiotherapy, integrating 3D polymer gel dosimetry, ionization chambers, diodes, diamond and scintillator detectors, Gafchromic film, and Monte Carlo simulation. This landmark study, cited six times, establishes a rigorous framework for verifying small-field output factors—a critical challenge in high-precision treatments where conventional dosimetry often fails. By systematically cross-validating multiple detector technologies against Monte Carlo models, Shehadeh has helped define best practices for quality assurance in robotic radiosurgery, directly impacting patient safety and treatment accuracy. His contributions bridge experimental and computational dosimetry, offering clinicians and researchers a reliable benchmark for small-field measurements. Shehadeh’s work is essential reading for medical physicists and radiation oncology professionals seeking to understand detector limitations and optimize calibration protocols in modern stereotactic systems.
