Deep learning-based auto-contouring of organs/structures-at-risk for pediatric upper abdominal radiotherapy.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
PURPOSES: This study aimed to develop a computed tomography (CT)-based multi-organ segmentation model for delineating organs-at-risk (OARs) in pediatric upper abdominal tumors and evaluate its robustness across multiple datasets.

Radiation oncology patients' perceptions of artificial intelligence and machine learning in cancer care: A multi-centre cross-sectional study.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
AIM: The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) is increasingly widespread in radiation oncology. However, patient engagement to date has been poor. Respect for persons in the healthcare setting and the principle of informed co...

Evaluating the prognostic significance of artificial intelligence-delineated gross tumor volume and prostate volume measurements for prostate radiotherapy.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Artificial intelligence (AI) may extract prognostic information from MRI for localized prostate cancer. We evaluate whether AI-derived prostate and gross tumor volume (GTV) are associated with toxicity and oncologic outcomes a...

PET and CT based DenseNet outperforms advanced deep learning models for outcome prediction of oropharyngeal cancer.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND: In the HECKTOR 2022 challenge set [1], several state-of-the-art (SOTA, achieving best performance) deep learning models were introduced for predicting recurrence-free period (RFP) in head and neck cancer patients using PET and CT images.

Optimizing fractionation schedules for de-escalation radiotherapy in head and neck cancers using deep reinforcement learning.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
PURPOSE: Patients with locally-advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs), particularly those related to human papillomavirus (HPV), often achieve good locoregional control (LRC), yet they suffer significant toxicities from standard che...

Incorporating indirect MRI information in a CT-based deep learning model for prostate auto-segmentation.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Computed tomography (CT) imaging poses challenges for delineation of soft tissue structures for prostate cancer external beam radiotherapy. Guidelines require the input of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) information. We devel...

Assessing multiple MRI sequences in deep learning-based synthetic CT generation for MR-only radiation therapy of head and neck cancers.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
PURPOSE: This study investigated the effect of multiple magnetic resonance (MR) sequences on the quality of deep-learning-based synthetic computed tomography (sCT) generation in the head and neck region.

Personalized auto-segmentation for magnetic resonance imaging-guided adaptive radiotherapy of large brain metastases.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Magnetic resonance-guided adaptive radiotherapy (MRgART) may improve the efficacy of large brain metastases (BMs)(≥2 cm), whereas the workflow requires optimized. This study develops a two-stage, personalized deep learning aut...

Machine learning model for predicting DIBH non-eligibility in left-sided breast cancer radiotherapy: Development, validation and clinical impact analysis.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
OBJECTIVE: Multi-day assessments accurately identify patients with left-sided breast cancer who are ineligible for irradiation in Deep Inspiration Breath Hold (DIBH) and minimise on-couch treatment time in those who are eligible. The challenge of imp...

Multiscale deep learning radiomics for predicting recurrence-free survival in pancreatic cancer: A multicenter study.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
PURPOSE: This multicenter study aimed to develop and validate a multiscale deep learning radiomics nomogram for predicting recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
