Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Edvaldo Galhardo's research centers on advanced radiotherapy techniques, with a particular focus on intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). His work investigates the dosimetric comparisons of different treatment planning systems, such as Brainlab elements and Eclipse RapidArc, for specific clinical applications like spine stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Galhardo has also explored the feasibility of novel approaches, including 3D-VMAT-based GRID therapy and pulsed reduced dose-rate radiotherapy for previously irradiated tumors in the brain and spine. His research contributes to the optimization of radiation delivery for cancer treatment, aiming to improve therapeutic efficacy while minimizing toxicity to surrounding healthy tissues. Galhardo has published 16 papers, garnering 162 citations, and holds an h-index of 5. He has collaborated with several researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Fen Xia, Milan Bimali, Ganesh Narayanasamy, and Forouh Kalantari.
