PURPOSE: Cauda Equina Syndrome (CES) is a rare surgical emergency. The implications for loss of quality of life through delayed management are high, though no clinical symptom is pathognomonic in its diagnosis. We describe how machine learning based ...
BACKGROUND: In magnetic resonance image (MRI)-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT), 2D rapid imaging is commonly used to track moving targets with high temporal frequency to minimize gating latency. However, anatomical motion is not constrained to 2D, and a p...
BACKGROUND: Effective breast cancer treatment planning requires balancing tumor control while minimizing radiation exposure to healthy tissues. Choosing between intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and three-dimensional conformal radiation th...
BACKGROUND: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a crucial daily imaging modality in image-guided and adaptive radiotherapy. However, the use of ionizing radiation in CBCT imaging increases the risk of secondary cancers, which is particularly conc...
