Online Adaptive Proton Therapy Facilitated by Artificial Intelligence-Based Autosegmentation in Pencil Beam Scanning Proton Therapy.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Online adaptive proton therapy (oAPT) is essential to address interfractional anatomical changes in patients receiving pencil beam scanning proton therapy. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based autosegmentation can increase the efficiency and a...

Three-Dimensional Deep Learning Normal Tissue Complication Probability Model to Predict Late Xerostomia in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Conventional normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models for patients with head and neck cancer are typically based on single-value variables, which, for radiation-induced xerostomia, are baseline xerostomia and mean salivary gland ...

Personalized Composite Dosimetric Score-Based Machine Learning Model of Severe Radiation-Induced Lymphopenia Among Patients With Esophageal Cancer.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Radiation-induced lymphopenia (RIL) is common among patients undergoing radiation therapy (RT)' Severe RIL has been linked to adverse outcomes. The severity and risk of RIL can be predicted from baseline clinical characteristics and dosimetr...

Enhancing Precision in Cardiac Segmentation for Magnetic Resonance-Guided Radiation Therapy Through Deep Learning.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Cardiac substructure dose metrics are more strongly linked to late cardiac morbidities than to whole-heart metrics. Magnetic resonance (MR)-guided radiation therapy (MRgRT) enables substructure visualization during daily localization, allowi...

Dose-Incorporated Deep Ensemble Learning for Improving Brain Metastasis Stereotactic Radiosurgery Outcome Prediction.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: To develop a novel deep ensemble learning model for accurate prediction of brain metastasis (BM) local control outcomes after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS).

Deep-Learning for Rapid Estimation of the Out-of-Field Dose in External Beam Photon Radiation Therapy - A Proof of Concept.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: The dose deposited outside of the treatment field during external photon beam radiation therapy treatment, also known as out-of-field dose, is the subject of extensive study as it may be associated with a higher risk of developing a second c...

Cluster-Based Toxicity Estimation of Osteoradionecrosis Via Unsupervised Machine Learning: Moving Beyond Single Dose-Parameter Normal Tissue Complication Probability by Using Whole Dose-Volume Histograms for Cohort Risk Stratification.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Given the limitations of extant models for normal tissue complication probability estimation for osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the mandible, the purpose of this study was to enrich statistical inference by exploiting structural properties of d...

Deep Learning for Automatic Gross Tumor Volumes Contouring in Esophageal Cancer Based on Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography Images: A Multi-Institutional Study.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: To develop and externally validate an automatic artificial intelligence (AI) tool for delineating gross tumor volume (GTV) in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), which can assist in neo-adjuvant or radical radiation ther...

A Prospective Study of Machine Learning-Assisted Radiation Therapy Planning for Patients Receiving 54 Gy to the Brain.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: The capacity for machine learning (ML) to facilitate radiation therapy (RT) planning for primary brain tumors has not been described. We evaluated ML-assisted RT planning with regard to clinical acceptability, dosimetric outcomes, and planni...
