Technical Note: 3D localization of lung tumors on cone beam CT projections via a convolutional recurrent neural network.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: To design a convolutional recurrent neural network (CRNN) that calculates three-dimensional (3D) positions of lung tumors from continuously acquired cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) projections, and facilitates the sorting and reconstruc...

Reconstruction of multicontrast MR images through deep learning.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with a long scan time can lead to degraded images due to patient motion, patient discomfort, and increased costs. For these reasons, the role of rapid MR imaging is important. In this study, we propose the joi...

A deep learning method for producing ventilation images from 4DCT: First comparison with technegas SPECT ventilation.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to develop a deep learning (DL) method for producing four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT) ventilation imaging and to evaluate the accuracy of the DL-based ventilation imaging against single-photon emission...

Fast contour propagation for MR-guided prostate radiotherapy using convolutional neural networks.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: To quickly and automatically propagate organ contours from pretreatment to fraction images in magnetic resonance (MR)-guided prostate external-beam radiotherapy.

DC-AL GAN: Pseudoprogression and true tumor progression of glioblastoma multiform image classification based on DCGAN and AlexNet.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Pseudoprogression (PsP) occurs in 20-30% of patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) after receiving the standard treatment. PsP exhibits similarities in shape and intensity to the true tumor progression (TTP) of GBM on the follow-up magn...

A fast deep learning approach for beam orientation optimization for prostate cancer treated with intensity-modulated radiation therapy.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Beam orientation selection, whether manual or protocol-based, is the current clinical standard in radiation therapy treatment planning, but it is tedious and can yield suboptimal results. Many algorithms have been designed to optimize beam o...

Synthetic CT generation from CBCT images via deep learning.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scanning is used daily or weekly (i.e., on-treatment CBCT) for accurate patient setup in image-guided radiotherapy. However, inaccuracy of CT numbers prevents CBCT from performing advanced tasks such as d...

Adaptive weighted log subtraction based on neural networks for markerless tumor tracking using dual-energy fluoroscopy.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: To present a novel method, based on convolutional neural networks (CNN), to automate weighted log subtraction (WLS) for dual-energy (DE) fluoroscopy to be used in conjunction with markerless tumor tracking (MTT).

A 3D deep convolutional neural network approach for the automated measurement of cerebellum tracer uptake in FDG PET-CT scans.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: The purpose of this work was to assess the potential of deep convolutional neural networks in automated measurement of cerebellum tracer uptake in F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) scans.

A computer-aided diagnosis system for differentiation and delineation of malignant regions on whole-slide prostate histopathology image using spatial statistics and multidimensional DenseNet.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Prostate cancer (PCa) is a major health concern in aging males, and proper management of the disease depends on accurately interpreting pathology specimens. However, reading prostatectomy histopathology slides, which is basically for staging...
