Vishruta A Dumane, PhD
About Me
Dr. Vishruta Ajitkumar Dumane joined the Department of Radiation Oncology at Mount Sinai in 2005, where she is currently Associate Professor with roles in the clinic, teaching and research. Dr. Dumane received her PhD from Drexel University in 2002 and her post-doctoral training at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York in 2005. She was certified in Therapeutic Medical Physics through the American Board of Radiology in 2008. Since 2022 she has been appointed Medical Dosimetry Program Director at the Mount Sinai Center for Radiation Sciences, and has also been serving as Clinical Associate Professor at Stony Brook University.
Dr. Dumane’s research focuses on development of treatment planning approaches with minimal toxicities, development and clinical implementation of knowledge-based models for automating treatment planning including malignant pleural mesothelioma, multiple cranial lesion stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), gynecologic, genitourinary, head and neck as well as cancers of the gastrointestinal tract. She is actively investigating the impact of plan quality improvement through plan automation on short term as well as long term toxicities through CTCAE scoring guidelines. She has co-authored 66 peer reviewed journal publications, conference proceedings, invited lectures and 2 book chapters. Her recent work on establishing a gating protocol for treating deaf patients has helped envision a new landscape for treating patients with disabilities and has been featured on the Tisch Cancer Institute specialty report as well as on Today.com and NBC New York Story.
Dr. Dumane is a member of The American Association of Physicists in Medicine and The Radiological and Medical Physics Society of New York and is a two-time recipient of the RAMPS Young Investigator Award. She has been serving as a reviewer as well as Associate Editor for peer-reviewed journals. In addition to her clinical and research activities, she is passionate about teaching treatment planning and medical dosimetry practices to students.
