BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: There are two significant challenges when implementing functional-guided radiotherapy using 4DCT-ventilation imaging: (1) lack of knowledge of realistic patient specific dosimetric goals for functional lung and (2) ensuring co...
PURPOSE: This work aims to generate cine CT images (i.e., 4D images with high-temporal resolution) based on a novel principal component reconstruction (PCR) technique with motion learning from 2D fluoroscopic training images.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The gross tumour volume (GTV) is predictive of clinical outcome and consequently features in many machine-learned models. 4D-planning, however, has prompted substitution of the GTV with the internal gross target volume (iGTV)....
The finite Gaussian mixture model with kernel correlation is a flexible tool that has recently received attention for point set registration. While there are many algorithms for point set registration presented in the literature, an important issue a...

PURPOSE: To investigate the adequacy of three-dimensional (3D) Monte Carlo (MC) optimization (3DMCO) and the potential of four-dimensional (4D) dose renormalization (4DMCrenorm) and optimization (4DMCO) for CyberKnife (Accuray Inc., Sunnyvale, CA) ra...
PURPOSE: This study proposes a novel deep learning-based approach for aneurysm wall characteristics, including thin-walled (TW) and hyperplastic-remodeling (HR) regions.

BACKGROUND: This study presents the development of a backpropagation neural network-based respiratory motion modelling method (BP-RMM) for precisely tracking arbitrary points within lung tissue throughout free respiration, encompassing deep inspirati...
BACKGROUND: Accurately modeling respiratory motion in medical images is crucial for various applications, including radiation therapy planning. However, existing registration methods often struggle to extract local features effectively, limiting thei...
CT is one of the most widely used modalities for musculoskeletal imaging. Recent advancements in the field include the introduction of four-dimensional CT, which captures a CT image during motion; cone-beam CT, which uses flat-panel detectors to capt...
