Uulke Van der Heide

Osman Akdag

I joined Uulke’s group as a clinical scientist responsible for MR imaging developments regarding MR-guided radiotherapy in the thoracic and abdominal region using the hybrid MRI-linear accelerator system. The MR imaging developments are meant to facilitate and improve adaptive radiotherapy treatments in tumor sites with larger motion amplitudes, mainly due to respiratory motion. In parallel, his work will also be focused on improving image contrast to improve the visualization of the treatment target and surrounding healthy organs.

Work experience

  • 2024-present: clinical scientist at the department of radiation oncology focusing on MR imaging          developments.
  • 2019-2024: : PhD student working on prototyping MRI-guided cardiac radioablation on the Elekta       1.5 T Unity MR-linac in which prototype workflows were developed for the simultaneous                      mitigation of cardiac and respiratory motion at the University Medical Center Utrecht.
