Medical Physicist
Wellstar Kennestone Hospital, United States
Dr. Jimm Grimm, PhD, is a clinical physicist who analyzes radiation dose response. He has commissioned several CyberKnife systems and provided physics support for thousands of Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy (SABR) / Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) cases. Dr. Grimm designed the DVH Evaluator, an FDA-cleared software tool that aids with comparing radiation therapy treatment plans to applicable dose tolerance limits, and for recording follow-up patient response and symptoms. The software has been used in the statistical tumor control probability (TCP) and normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) dose response modeling of data from more than 30,000 SBRT cases for several published clinical datasets including the full April 2016 issue of Seminars in Radiation Oncology on NTCP for SBRT, as well as the May 2021 Special Issue of the Red Journal on HyTEC: High Dose per Fraction, Hypofractionated Treatment Effects in the Clinic. Dr. Grimm is very appreciative of the more than 100 experts and authors who made these works possible.
