To develop and evaluate the performance of a deep learning model to generate synthetic pulmonary perfusion images from clinical 4DCT images for patients undergoing radiotherapy for lung cancer.. A clinical data set of 58 pre- and post-radiotherapyTc-...
Although deep learning (DL) technique has been successfully used for computed tomography (CT) reconstruction, its implementation on cone-beam CT (CBCT) reconstruction is extremely challenging due to memory limitations. In this study, a novel DL techn...

The 4D Treatment Planning Workshop for Particle Therapy, a workshop dedicated to the treatment of moving targets with scanned particle beams, started in 2009 and since then has been organized annually. The mission of the workshop is to create an info...
Accurate deformable four-dimensional (4D) (three-dimensional in space and time) medical images registration is essential in a variety of medical applications. Deep learning-based methods have recently gained popularity in this area for the significan...
Due to the inter- and intra- variation of respiratory motion, it is highly desired to provide real-time volumetric images during the treatment delivery of lung stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for accurate and active motion management. In t...

INTRODUCTION: Our markerless tumor tracking algorithm requires 4DCT data to train models. 4DCT cannot be used for markerless tracking for respiratory-gated treatment due to inaccuracies and a high radiation dose. We developed a deep neural network (D...
PURPOSE: Four-dimensional cone-beam computed tomography (4D CBCT) imaging has been suggested as a solution to account for interfraction motion variability of moving targets like lung and liver during radiotherapy (RT) of moving targets. However, due ...
Four-dimensional (4D) cone-beam CT (CBCT) reconstructs temporally-resolved phases of 3D volumes often with the same amount of projection data that are meant for reconstructing a single 3D volume. 4D CBCT is a sparse-data problem that is very challeng...
PURPOSE: Sparse-data computed tomography (CT) frequently occurs, such as breast tomosynthesis, C-arm CT, on-board four-dimensional cone-beam CT (4D CBCT), and industrial CT. However, sparse-data image reconstruction remains challenging due to highly ...
Deformable image registration (DIR) of 4D-CT images is important in multiple radiation therapy applications including motion tracking of soft tissue or fiducial markers, target definition, image fusion, dose accumulation and treatment response evalua...
