About
Uğur Akbaş is a dedicated researcher in the field of medical physics, with a primary focus on radiation oncology and stereotactic radiosurgery. His work centers on enhancing the precision and safety of advanced radiotherapy systems, particularly the CyberKnife robotic radiosurgery platform. Akbaş’s most notable contribution is his pioneering research on patient-specific quality assurance (QA) for intracranial cases, where he developed rigorous pretreatment verification protocols using ion chamber measurements. His 2019 study, which has garnered 6 citations, systematically validated the accuracy of ray-tracing algorithms in CyberKnife treatment planning, ensuring that radiation doses delivered to brain tumors match planned distributions within tight tolerances. This work directly addresses a critical clinical need: minimizing radiation exposure to healthy brain tissue while maximizing tumor control. By establishing robust QA methodologies, Akbaş has helped improve treatment safety and reliability for patients undergoing intracranial radiosurgery. His research bridges the gap between theoretical dosimetry and real-world clinical application, making him a valuable contributor to the medical physics community. Akbaş’s commitment to precision oncology continues to shape best practices in stereotactic radiosurgery quality assurance.
