Kevin Moore Lab


Dr. Moore's research group is dedicated to the dissemination of the best practices in optimized radiotherapy planning. Though the mathematical methods can be complex, the logic behind knowledge-based planning is extremely simple: use past clinical experience to quantitatively inform and improve the practice of radiotherapy for future patients. We hope to serve a direct clinical need by educating clinicians in how to understand and safely adopt knowledge-based methods in their radiotherapy practice.
