BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Motion management is essential to reduce normal tissue exposure and maintain adequate tumor dose in lung stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Lung SBRT using an articulated robotic arm allows dynamic tracking during rad...
PURPOSE: Frequent CT scans to quantify lung involvement in cystic lung disease increases radiation exposure. Beam shaping energy filters can optimize imaging properties at lower radiation dosages. The aim of this study is to investigate whether use o...
PURPOSE: To prospectively evaluate whether Lung-RADS classification and volumetric nodule assessment were feasible with ultralow-dose (ULD) chest CT scans with deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR).

PURPOSE: Deep learning-based auto-segmentation algorithms can improve clinical workflow by defining accurate regions of interest while reducing manual labor. Over the past decade, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have become prominent in medical ...
INTRODUCTION: Minimally invasive approaches to lung resection have become widely acceptable and more recently, segmentectomy has demonstrated equivalent oncologic outcomes when compared to lobectomy for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)....
AIM: To explore the potential of utilising radiomics analysis and machine-learning models that incorporate intratumoural and peritumoural regions of interest (ROIs) for predicting brain metastasis (BM) in newly diagnosed lung cancer patients.

Surgical site infection (SSI) after minimally invasive lung cancer surgery constitutes an important factor influencing the direct and indirect economic implications, patient prognosis, and the 5-year survival rate for early-stage lung cancer patients...
BACKGROUND: Mesenchymal epithelial transformation (MET) is a key molecular target for diagnosis and treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The corresponding molecularly targeted therapeutics have been approved by Food and Drug Administratio...
