FBFormer: interventional ultra-sparse CT reconstruction with image prior using feature back-projection and transformer.

Physics in medicine and biology
. CT-guided interventional procedures hold a significant position in clinical practice. However, due to the high number of scans and prolonged procedure times, patients are exposed to considerable radiation doses. This study aims to utilize intraoper...

A multimodal multitask deep learning model for predicting stroke lesion and functional outcomes using 4D CTP imaging and clinical metadata.

Scientific reports
Acute ischemic stroke is a major global health challenge, leading to long-term disability or death without timely intervention. Among neuroimaging modalities, spatio-temporal (4D) computed tomography perfusion (CTP) is widely used to assess cerebral ...

PixelPrint 4D : A 3D Printing Method of Fabricating Patient-Specific Deformable CT Phantoms for Respiratory Motion Applications.

Investigative radiology
OBJECTIVES: Respiratory motion poses a significant challenge for clinical workflows in diagnostic imaging and radiation therapy. Many technologies such as motion artifact reduction and tumor tracking have been developed to compensate for its effect. ...

Automated transcatheter heart valve 4DCT-based deformation assessment throughout the cardiac cycle: Towards enhanced long-term durability.

International journal of medical informatics
BACKGROUND: Transcatheter heart valve (THV) durability is a critical concern, and its deformation may influence long-term performance. Current assessments rely on CT-based single-phase measurements and require a tedious analysis process, potentially ...

An end-to-end neural network for 4D cardiac CT reconstruction using single-beat scans.

Physics in medicine and biology
Motion artifacts remain a significant challenge in cardiac CT imaging, often impairing the accurate detection and diagnosis of cardiac diseases. These artifacts result from involuntary cardiac motion, and traditional mitigation methods typically rely...

Smart contours: deep learning-driven internal gross tumor volume delineation in non-small cell lung cancer using 4D CT maximum and average intensity projections.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Delineating the internal gross tumor volume (IGTV) is crucial for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Deep learning (DL) enables the automation of this process; however, current studies focus mainly on multiple phases of ...

Semi-supervised temporal attention network for lung 4D CT ventilation estimation.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
Computed tomography (CT)-derived ventilation estimation, also known as CT ventilation imaging (CTVI), is emerging as a potentially crucial tool for designing functional avoidance radiotherapy treatment plans and evaluating therapy responses. However,...

Deep-learning synthetized 4DCT from 4DMRI of the abdominal site in carbon-ion radiotherapy.

Physica medica : PM : an international journal devoted to the applications of physics to medicine and biology : official journal of the Italian Association of Biomedical Physics (AIFB)
PURPOSE: To investigate the feasibility of deep-learning-based synthetic 4DCT (4D-sCT) generation from 4DMRI data of abdominal patients undergoing Carbon Ion Radiotherapy (CIRT).

Preliminary phantom study of four-dimensional computed tomographic angiography for renal artery mapping: Low-tube voltage and low-contrast volume imaging with deep learning-based reconstruction.

Radiography (London, England : 1995)
INTRODUCTION: A hybrid angio-CT system with 320-row detectors and deep learning-based reconstruction (DLR), provides additional imaging via 4D-CT angiography (CTA), potentially shortening procedure time and reducing DSA acquisitions, contrast media, ...

DPI-MoCo: Deep Prior Image Constrained Motion Compensation Reconstruction for 4D CBCT.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
4D cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) plays a critical role in adaptive radiation therapy for lung cancer. However, extremely sparse sampling projection data will cause severe streak artifacts in 4D CBCT images. Existing deep learning (DL) methods ...
