About
Thomas Ravkilde is a leading researcher in the field of real-time adaptive radiotherapy, with a focus on improving the precision of cancer treatments that must account for tumor motion. His major contributions center on the dosimetric comparison of adaptive versus non-adaptive radiotherapy systems, demonstrating that adaptive techniques—such as robotic, gimbaled, multileaf collimator, and couch tracking—significantly enhance dosimetric accuracy when treating moving tumors. His most-cited work, a multi-institutional study from 2016, has garnered 95 citations and provides critical evidence supporting the clinical adoption of real-time adaptive radiotherapy. Additionally, Ravkilde has explored the verification of dose painting and target tracking using advanced 3D dosimetry systems, contributing to the development of more precise treatment delivery methods. His research is instrumental in bridging the gap between technological innovation and clinical practice, offering tangible improvements in patient outcomes. Through rigorous experimental validation, Ravkilde has established himself as a key figure in advancing adaptive radiotherapy, making his work essential reading for students and researchers interested in the intersection of medical physics, motion management, and personalized cancer care.
