About

Paul E. Kinahan is a leading figure in biomedical imaging, whose work has fundamentally advanced the integration of PET/CT in radiotherapy, particularly for lung cancer. His research centers on quantitative imaging, motion management, and the reduction of dosimetric errors in image-guided radiation therapy. A key contribution is his development of end-to-end frameworks to measure and mitigate patient-specific respiratory motion artifacts, directly improving the accuracy of 4D PET/CT-guided treatment planning. His highly cited work, including a seminal 2015 study on dynamic motion phantoms, has established critical benchmarks for quantifying imaging and dosimetric uncertainties, influencing clinical protocols worldwide. With over 11,000 citations to his name, Kinahan’s impact is profound; he has also been instrumental in advancing the quantitative imaging biomarkers alliance (QIBA) and holds multiple patents for motion-correction technologies. His rigorous, translational approach continues to shape safer, more precise cancer therapies.
