About
Y. Qin is a leading expert in stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and image-guided radiation therapy, with a focus on frameless, multi-modality treatment systems. Their most-cited work, a 2016 technical note, provides a rigorous evaluation of the systematic accuracy of a frameless, linear accelerator-based SRS system that integrates multiple imaging modalities. By employing an end-to-end phantom to measure localization accuracy and intermodality differences, Qin established critical benchmarks for clinical precision, demonstrating how optic-guided targeting can achieve submillimeter accuracy without invasive frames. This contribution has been cited 28 times, reflecting its foundational role in advancing frameless SRS—a paradigm that improves patient comfort and workflow efficiency. Qin’s research directly addresses the technical challenges of integrating CT, MRI, and optical tracking, ensuring that non-invasive treatments match the accuracy of traditional frame-based methods. Their work is essential reading for medical physicists and radiation oncologists developing or validating modern SRS programs, and it underscores Qin’s commitment to bridging engineering rigor with clinical safety.
