About
Yusuke Tsuruta is a radiation oncology researcher whose work centers on improving the precision and safety of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), particularly for intracranial treatments. His most cited study, "Evaluation of intrafractional head motion for intracranial stereotactic radiosurgery with a thermoplastic frameless mask and ceiling-floor-mounted image guidance device" (2021, 10 citations), addresses a critical challenge in frameless SRS: ensuring accurate targeting despite patient movement during treatment. By quantifying head motion under a thermoplastic mask and ceiling-floor-mounted image guidance, Tsuruta demonstrated that such setups can achieve submillimeter accuracy, comparable to invasive frame-based systems. This work directly supports the clinical adoption of non-invasive, patient-friendly frameless techniques without compromising treatment precision. His research has practical implications for reducing setup errors and improving outcomes in radiosurgery, making it valuable for clinicians and medical physicists. While his citation count reflects a focused, early-career impact, Tsuruta’s contributions are notable for their rigorous methodology and direct relevance to daily clinical practice in radiation oncology.
