Computational radiotherapy

Our research draws on the strengths of a long standing and fruitful collaboration between the Departments of Physics and Oncology in the study of computational radiotherapy. Starting in 2011 with the AccelRT project, followed by VoxTox, the collaboration has also been successful in securing funds for several PhD students, a Wellcome Foundation internship for the GHOST project and two EPSRC/STFC Impact Acceleration Account awards to explore the commercial potential of its work. Our mature multidisciplinary research group builds on existing expertise in imaging, high energy physics, and high performance computing in the Cavendish Laboratory, together with experience in clinical radiotherapy and imaging in the Oncology Centre at Addenbrooke’s Hospital.
