About
Tsuicheng Chiu is a biomedical engineer whose research centers on image-guided radiation therapy, with a particular focus on breast cancer treatment. His key contributions lie in developing novel ultrasound-based imaging systems to improve the precision of stereotactic partial breast irradiation (S-PBI). Chiu’s most cited work, a 2018 proof-of-concept study, introduced a prototype volumetric ultrasound tomography system designed to address critical challenges in S-PBI—namely, target position uncertainty from breast deformation, lumpectomy cavity shrinkage, and delineation errors on simulation CT. By enabling real-time, three-dimensional visualization of the target volume during treatment, his approach aims to enhance dose delivery accuracy and reduce radiation exposure to healthy tissue. Though his citation count is modest, this foundational work represents a significant step toward integrating ultrasound guidance into clinical workflows for breast radiotherapy. Chiu’s research bridges engineering innovation and clinical application, offering a promising solution to one of the field’s persistent obstacles: ensuring precise targeting in a dynamically changing anatomical environment. His work continues to inspire further investigation into non-ionizing imaging modalities for adaptive radiation therapy.
