We present DrugScore, a new version of the knowledge-based scoring function DrugScore, which builds upon the same formalism used to derive DrugScore but exploits a training data set of nearly 40 000 X-ray complex structures, a highly diverse and the,...
PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of using a single-institution, knowledge-based planning (KBP) model as a dosimetric plan quality control (QC) for multi-institutional clinical trials. The efficacy of this QC tool was retrospectiv...
