BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Administration of contrast is not desirable for all cases in clinical setting, and no consensus in sequence selection for deep learning model development has been achieved, thus we aim to explore whether contrast-enhanced m...
Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma segmentation in magnetic resonance imagery (MRI) is vital to radiotherapy. Exact dose delivery hinges on an accurate delineation of the gross tumor volume (GTV). However, the large-scale variation in tumor volume is intractab...

BACKGROUND: Deep learning methods have great potential to predict treatment response. The objective of this study was to evaluate and validate the predictive performance of the computed tomography (CT)-based model using deep learning features for ide...
Megavoltage computed tomography (MV-CT) is used for setup verification and adaptive radiotherapy in tomotherapy. However, its low contrast and high noise lead to poor image quality. This study aimed to develop a deep-learning-based method to generate...
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: To develop a deep-learning-based automatic diagnosis system for identifying nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) from noncancer (inflammation and hyperplasia), using both white light imaging (WLI) and narrow-band imaging (NBI) nasoph...
BACKGROUND: Induction chemotherapy (ICT) plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) and CCRT alone were the optional treatment regimens in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients. Currently, the choice of them remains equivocal ...
In this work, we develop a deep learning-guided fiberoptic Raman diagnostic platform to assess its ability of real-time nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) diagnosis and post-treatment follow-up of NPC patients. The robust Raman diagnostic platform is es...
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to build a survival system by combining a highly-accurate machine learning (ML) model with explainable artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to predict distant metastasis in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC...
