Survival prediction for stage I-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer using deep learning.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate a prediction model for 2-year overall survival (OS) in stage I-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who received definitive radiotherapy by considering clinical var...

Deep learning-based accurate delineation of primary gross tumor volume of nasopharyngeal carcinoma on heterogeneous magnetic resonance imaging: A large-scale and multi-center study.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The problem of obtaining accurate primary gross tumor volume (GTVp) segmentation for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) on heterogeneous magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images with deep learning remains unsolved. Herein, we repor...

Patient-specific daily updated deep learning auto-segmentation for MRI-guided adaptive radiotherapy.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Deep Learning (DL) technique has shown great potential but still has limited success in online contouring for MR-guided adaptive radiotherapy (MRgART). This study proposed a patient-specific DL auto-segmentation (DLAS) strateg...

Comparison of atlas-based and deep learning methods for organs at risk delineation on head-and-neck CT images using an automated treatment planning system.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To investigate the performance of head-and-neck (HN) organs-at-risk (OAR) automatic segmentation (AS) using four atlas-based (ABAS) and two deep learning (DL) solutions.

Automated clinical decision support system with deep learning dose prediction and NTCP models to evaluate treatment complications in patients with esophageal cancer.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: This study aims to investigate how accurate our deep learning (DL) dose prediction models for intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and pencil beam scanning (PBS) treatments, when chained with normal tissue complication prob...

A deep learning approach to generate synthetic CT in low field MR-guided radiotherapy for lung cases.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
INTRODUCTION: This study aims to apply a conditional Generative Adversarial Network (cGAN) to generate synthetic Computed Tomography (sCT) from 0.35 Tesla Magnetic Resonance (MR) images of the thorax.

Quantifying the post-radiation accelerated brain aging rate in glioma patients with deep learning.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Changes of healthy appearing brain tissue after radiotherapy (RT) have been previously observed. Patients undergoing RT may have a higher risk of cognitive decline, leading to a reduced quality of life. The experienced tissue ...

Comparative evaluation of a prototype deep learning algorithm for autosegmentation of normal tissues in head and neck radiotherapy.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
PURPOSE: To introduce and validate a newly developed deep-learning (DL) auto-segmentation algorithm for head and neck (HN) organs at risk (OARs) and to compare its performance with a published commercial algorithm.

Training, validation, and clinical implementation of a deep-learning segmentation model for radiotherapy of loco-regional breast cancer.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
AIM: To train and validate a comprehensive deep-learning (DL) segmentation model for loco-regional breast cancer with the aim of clinical implementation.

Use of deep learning to predict the need for aggressive nutritional supplementation during head and neck radiotherapy.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES: Radiation therapy (RT) for the treatment of patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) leads to side effects that can limit a person's oral intake. Early identification of patients who need aggressive nutrition supplementation via a...
