Under the direction of Dr. Wesley Bolch, Professor, the Advanced Laboratory for Radiation Dosimetry Studies (ALRADS) focuses on development of rapid and clinically accessible computational tools for use by radiologists and radiation oncologists to assess radiation organ dose and associated secondary cancer risks to patients following diagnostic imaging or radiation therapy. The lab has used computer animation software and real patient imaging data to create a 350-member library of pediatric and adult males and females that covers a broad range of subject heights, weights and body shapes. These anatomic models are now being used in all three areas of medical imaging: interventional fluoroscopy, nuclear medicine, and computed tomography. Therapy applications of the UF patient phantom series include assessment of secondary cancer risks in proton versus photon cancer radiotherapy, alpha emitter radiopharmaceutical therapy, and the use of kilovoltage stereotactic radiotherapy for halting the progression of age-related macular degeneration.
