BACKGROUND. Glioblastoma (GBM) is a fast-growing and aggressive brain tumor. GBM is the most frequent malignant primary brain tumour and it can result in death in three-six months, if untreated. The current standard of care (SOC) therapy consists in maximal safe surgical resection followed by radiation therapy and adjuvant temozolomide (Stupp protocol), with a median overall survival (OS) of 8-10 months. However, more than half of GBM patients die within one year from the diagnosis, and only 5% survive more than 5 years despite aggressive therapies. Research has now shifted additional attentio

The main aim of this work was to develop accurate and efficient methods for the verification of Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT). IMRT is an advanced form of radiotherapy demanding extensive verification procedures to ensure treatments are delivered accurately. This requires comprehensive sampling of the complex dose distributions impacting on the tumour volume and radiationsensitive ‘organs at risk’. This work has focused on the use of electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) for verification purposes. Modern EPIDs are composed of a scintillator and an amorphous silicon detector panel

Radiotherapy (RT) is a component of treatment for breast cancer in more than 50% of cases.

Breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease and some tumours are refractory to RT treatment. Selection of patients for RT using predictive markers may improve RT efficacy and cancer outcomes. The aims of the work described in this thesis were to identify and test potential predictive markers for RT in cancer treatment. I examined whether the classic hist

Radiotherapy is currently used in around 50% of cancer treatments. Although highly effective it is also damaging to surrounding healthy tissues and needs to be improved by better targeting of cancer cells. Improved radiotherapy outcomes can be achieved by using nanoparticles, especially those with high atomic number (Z), that interact with ionising radiation to generate secondary electrons and reactive species that increase cellular damage. One of the most promising elements to use is gold, in the form of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) because of its biocompatibility and amenability to surface mod

The use of Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) is expected to increase, largely due to development of helical tomotherapy. VMAT minimises the occurence of hotspots and inadiation of critical organs, providing more uniform dose while sparing critical organs. Two important characteristics of VMA T are its dynamic nature and dosimetric variability in radiation delivery. These present considerable challenge for clinical physicists as the implementation of the process contains a number of sources of uncertainty and thus require robust QA.
