About
N. Delaby is a medical physicist whose research focuses on stereotactic radiosurgery quality assurance and dosimetry, particularly for the CyberKnife system. Their most significant contribution lies in advancing patient-specific plan delivery quality assurance (QA) for CyberKnife treatments. In their highly cited 2017 study (31 citations), Delaby applied statistical process control analysis to 350 film-based QA measurements, establishing robust tolerance limits and demonstrating the stability of CyberKnife delivery—a foundational work for clinical QA protocols. They also investigated peripheral dose distributions in brain treatments with the CyberKnife M6 system (9 citations), providing critical data on out-of-field radiation exposure. Delaby’s work bridges clinical practice and rigorous statistical methodology, offering practical guidelines for ensuring treatment accuracy and safety. Their research has directly influenced quality management in radiosurgery, making them a key contributor to the field of stereotactic radiation therapy physics.
