Performance of recurrent neural networks with Monte Carlo dropout for predicting pharmacokinetic parameters from dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging data.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: To quantitatively evaluate the performance of two types of recurrent neural networks (RNNs), long short-term memory (LSTM) and gated recurrent units (GRU), using Monte Carlo dropout (MCD) to predict pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters from dynam...

Machine learning based radiomics model to predict radiotherapy induced cardiotoxicity in breast cancer.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: Cardiotoxicity is one of the major concerns in breast cancer treatment, significantly affecting patient outcomes. To improve the likelihood of favorable outcomes for breast cancer survivors, it is essential to carefully balance the potential...

Estimation of heart dose in left breast cancer radiotherapy: Assessment of vDIBH feasibility using the supervised machine learning algorithm.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The volunteer deep inspiration breath hold (vDIBH) technique is used to reduce the heart dose in left breast cancer radiotherapy. Many times, it is faced that despite rigorous exercise and training, not all patients get bene...

Personalized federated learning for abdominal multi-organ segmentation based on frequency domain aggregation.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: The training of deep learning (DL) models in medical images requires large amounts of sensitive patient data. However, acquiring adequately labeled datasets is challenging because of the heavy workload of manual annotations and the stringent...
