PURPOSE: To evaluate the feasibility of patient-specific digital radiography (DR)-only treatment planning for carbon ion radiotherapy in anthropomorphic thorax-and-abdomen phantom and head-and-neck patients.
With the increase of the adult orthodontic population, there is a need for an accurate and evidence-based prediction of the posttreatment face in 3 dimensions (3D). The objectives of this study are 1) to develop a 3D postorthodontic face prediction m...
The dental practice has largely evolved in the last 50 years following a better understanding of the biomechanical behaviour of teeth and its supporting structures, as well as developments in the fields of imaging and biomaterials. However, many pati...
Deep learning affords enormous opportunities to augment the armamentarium of biomedical imaging. However, the pure data-driven nature of deep learning models may limit the model generalizability and application scope. Here we establish a geometry-inf...

INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to evaluate a 3-dimensional (3D) U-Net-based convolutional neural networks model for the fully automatic segmentation of regional pharyngeal volume of interests (VOIs) in cone-beam computed tomography scans to compare t...
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of deep learning-based integrated tooth models (ITMs) by merging intraoral scans and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans for three-dimensional (3D) evaluation of root position during orthodo...
An accurate three-dimensional (3D) segmentation of the maxillary sinus is crucial for multiple diagnostic and treatment applications. Yet, it is challenging and time-consuming when manually performed on a cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) dataset....
PURPOSE: Adaptive radiotherapy (ART), especially online ART, effectively accounts for positioning errors and anatomical changes. One key component of online ART process is accurately and efficiently delineating organs at risk (OARs) and targets on on...
