Deep learning segmentation of organs-at-risk with integration into clinical workflow for pediatric brain radiotherapy.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: Radiation therapy (RT) of pediatric brain cancer is known to be associated with long-term neurocognitive deficits. Although target and organs-at-risk (OARs) are contoured as part of treatment planning, other structures linked to cognitive fu...

Technical note: Minimizing CIED artifacts on a 0.35 T MRI-Linac using deep learning.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
BACKGROUND: Artifacts from implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) are a challenge to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT).

Automated size-specific dose estimates framework in thoracic CT using convolutional neural network based on U-Net model.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: This study aimed to develop an automated method that uses a convolutional neural network (CNN) for calculating size-specific dose estimates (SSDEs) based on the corrected effective diameter (D ) in thoracic computed tomography (CT).

A quantitative evaluation of the deep learning model of segmentation and measurement of cervical spine MRI in healthy adults.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: To evaluate the 3D U-Net model for automatic segmentation and measurement of cervical spine structures using magnetic resonance (MR) images of healthy adults.

A deep learning approach to remove contrast from contrast-enhanced CT for proton dose calculation.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: Non-Contrast Enhanced CT (NCECT) is normally required for proton dose calculation while Contrast Enhanced CT (CECT) is often scanned for tumor and organ delineation. Possible tissue motion between these two CTs raises dosimetry uncertainties...

Gross failure rates and failure modes for a commercial AI-based auto-segmentation algorithm in head and neck cancer patients.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: Artificial intelligence (AI) based commercial software can be used to automatically delineate organs at risk (OAR), with potential for efficiency savings in the radiotherapy treatment planning pathway, and reduction of inter- and intra-obser...

CT image denoising methods for image quality improvement and radiation dose reduction.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
With the ever-increasing use of computed tomography (CT), concerns about its radiation dose have become a significant public issue. To address the need for radiation dose reduction, CT denoising methods have been widely investigated and applied in lo...

Impact of deep learning-based multiorgan segmentation methods on patient-specific internal dosimetry in PET/CT imaging: A comparative study.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: Accurate and fast multiorgan segmentation is essential in image-based internal dosimetry in nuclear medicine. While conventional manual PET image segmentation is widely used, it suffers from both being time-consuming as well as subject to hu...

Evaluating the Hounsfield unit assignment and dose differences between CT-based standard and deep learning-based synthetic CT images for MRI-only radiation therapy of the head and neck.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
BACKGROUND: Magnetic resonance image only (MRI-only) simulation for head and neck (H&N) radiotherapy (RT) could allow for single-image modality planning with excellent soft tissue contrast. In the MRI-only simulation workflow, synthetic computed tomo...

Automated detection and segmentation of pleural effusion on ultrasound images using an Attention U-net.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
BACKGROUND: Ultrasonic for detecting and evaluating pleural effusion is an essential part of the Extended Focused Assessment with Sonography in Trauma (E-FAST) in emergencies. Our study aimed to develop an Artificial Intelligence (AI) diagnostic mode...
