Abstract

PURPOSE: The use of convolution neural networks (CNN) to accurately predict dose distributions can accelerate intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) planning. The purpose of our study is to develop a novel deep learning architecture for precise voxel-level dose prediction on brain tumors.
