During the radiotherapy treatment of patients with lung cancer, the radiation delivered to healthy tissue around the tumor needs to be minimized, which is difficult because of respiratory motion and the latency of linear accelerator (LINAC) systems. ...
In this study, a novel method with the U-Net-based network architecture, 2D U-Net, is employed to segment the position of lung nodules, which are an early symptom of lung cancer and have a high probability of becoming a carcinoma, especially when a l...

BACKGROUND: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common tumor entity spreading to the brain and up to 50% of patients develop brain metastases (BMs). Detection of BMs on MRI is challenging with an inherent risk of missed diagnosis.
PURPOSE: Despite the widespread availability of in-treatment room cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging, due to the lack of reliable segmentation methods, CBCT is only used for gross set up corrections in lung radiotherapies. Accurate and reli...
Cancer patients have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality than the general population. Low dose computed tomography (LDCT) for lung cancer screening offers an opportunity for simultaneous CVD risk estimation in at-risk patients. Ou...
AIM: To compare the performance and reading time of different readers using automatic artificial intelligence (AI)-powered computer-aided detection (CAD) to detect lung nodules in different reading modes.
Background Accurate estimation of the malignancy risk of pulmonary nodules at chest CT is crucial for optimizing management in lung cancer screening. Purpose To develop and validate a deep learning (DL) algorithm for malignancy risk estimation of pul...
Few studies have addressed radiomics based differentiation of Glioblastoma (GBM) and intracranial metastatic disease (IMD). However, the effect of different tumor masks, comparison of single versus multiparametric MRI (mp-MRI) or select combination o...
