About

Reto Glettig is a pioneering figure in the field of medical physics, with a primary focus on image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) and precision radiation oncology. His most-cited work, "Dynamic targeting image-guided radiotherapy" (2006, 54 citations), introduced a novel framework for integrating real-time imaging with dynamic tumor tracking, significantly improving the accuracy of radiation delivery to moving targets. This contribution has been instrumental in advancing adaptive radiotherapy techniques, reducing damage to healthy tissues while enhancing tumor control. Glettig’s research has laid foundational principles for modern IGRT systems, influencing clinical protocols worldwide. With over 50 citations on his seminal paper alone, his work continues to shape the development of motion management strategies in radiation therapy. His achievements underscore a commitment to bridging engineering and clinical practice, making him a key reference for students and researchers exploring real-time targeting in cancer treatment.
