About
Stephanie Tanadini‐Lang is a leading researcher in precision radiotherapy, specializing in real-time motion management and adaptive treatment delivery. Her work centers on improving dosimetric accuracy for moving tumors, particularly in pulmonary stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). Her most impactful contribution is a landmark multi-institutional study comparing real-time adaptive and non-adaptive radiotherapy systems, which demonstrated that adaptive treatments—encompassing robotic, gimbaled, multileaf collimator, and couch tracking—significantly improve dosimetric accuracy in the presence of patient-measured tumor motion (95 citations). She has also advanced the field by proposing dose prescription to the mean internal target volume dose to enhance interinstitutional consistency in pulmonary SBRT. Tanadini‐Lang has conducted pioneering work on robotic treatment couch tracking, modeling its performance and evaluating its requirements for ideal motion compensation. Notably, she investigated the unconscious physiological response of healthy volunteers to dynamic couch motion, addressing safety and tolerability concerns. Her research has been instrumental in bridging the gap between theoretical motion compensation and clinical implementation, with her studies cited over 125 times collectively. Through her systematic evaluation of couch tracking systems and real-time adaptive technologies, Tanadini‐Lang has helped establish best practices for minimizing intrafractional motion uncertainty in precision radiotherapy.
