BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The problem of obtaining accurate primary gross tumor volume (GTVp) segmentation for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) on heterogeneous magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images with deep learning remains unsolved. Herein, we repor...
Accurate-staging is important when planning personalized radiotherapy. However,-staging via manual slice-by-slice inspection is time-consuming while tumor sizes and shapes are heterogeneous, and junior physicians find such inspection challenging. Wit...
OBJECTIVE: We examined a modified encoder-decoder architecture-based fully convolutional neural network, OrganNet, for simultaneous auto-segmentation of 24 organs at risk (OARs) in the head and neck, followed by validation tests and evaluation of cli...

Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) is a malignant epithelial cancer arising from the nasopharynx. Survival prediction is a major concern for NPC patients, as it provides early prognostic information to plan treatments. Recently, deep survival models base...
The detection of serum Epstein-Barr virus antibodies by immunofluorescence assay (IFA) is considered the gold standard screening test for nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) in high-risk populations. Given the high survival rate after early detection in asym...
The objective of this research was to investigate the application values of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of the deep learning-based image super-resolution reconstruction algorithm optimized convolutional neural network (OPCNN) algorithm ...
