A deep learning-based self-adapting ensemble method for segmentation in gynecological brachytherapy.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
PURPOSE: Fast and accurate outlining of the organs at risk (OARs) and high-risk clinical tumor volume (HRCTV) is especially important in high-dose-rate brachytherapy due to the highly time-intensive online treatment planning process and the high dose...

Development of deep learning chest X-ray model for cardiac dose prediction in left-sided breast cancer radiotherapy.

Scientific reports
Deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) is widely used to reduce the cardiac dose in left-sided breast cancer radiotherapy. This study aimed to develop a deep learning chest X-ray model for cardiac dose prediction to select patients with a potentially hi...

Evaluation of auto-segmentation for EBRT planning structures using deep learning-based workflow on cervical cancer.

Scientific reports
Deep learning (DL) based approach aims to construct a full workflow solution for cervical cancer with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) and brachytherapy (BT). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of EBRT planning structures de...

Fast VMAT planning for prostate radiotherapy: dosimetric validation of a deep learning-based initial segment generation method.

Physics in medicine and biology
. To develop and evaluate a deep learning based fast volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plan generation method for prostate radiotherapy.. A customized 3D U-Net was trained and validated to predict initial segments at 90 evenly distributed contr...

A deep image-to-image network organ segmentation algorithm for radiation treatment planning: principles and evaluation.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
BACKGROUND: We describe and evaluate a deep network algorithm which automatically contours organs at risk in the thorax and pelvis on computed tomography (CT) images for radiation treatment planning.

Comparative evaluation of a prototype deep learning algorithm for autosegmentation of normal tissues in head and neck radiotherapy.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
PURPOSE: To introduce and validate a newly developed deep-learning (DL) auto-segmentation algorithm for head and neck (HN) organs at risk (OARs) and to compare its performance with a published commercial algorithm.

Automatic segmentation of thoracic CT images using three deep learning models.

Cancer radiotherapie : journal de la Societe francaise de radiotherapie oncologique
PURPOSE: Deep learning (DL) techniques are widely used in medical imaging and in particular for segmentation. Indeed, manual segmentation of organs at risk (OARs) is time-consuming and suffers from inter- and intra-observer segmentation variability. ...

Machine learning-based detection of aberrant deep learning segmentations of target and organs at risk for prostate radiotherapy using a secondary segmentation algorithm.

Physics in medicine and biology
The output of a deep learning (DL) auto-segmentation application should be reviewed, corrected if needed and approved before being used clinically. This verification procedure is labour-intensive, time-consuming and user-dependent, which potentially ...

Training, validation, and clinical implementation of a deep-learning segmentation model for radiotherapy of loco-regional breast cancer.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
AIM: To train and validate a comprehensive deep-learning (DL) segmentation model for loco-regional breast cancer with the aim of clinical implementation.

Tackling the class imbalance problem of deep learning-based head and neck organ segmentation.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: The segmentation of organs at risk (OAR) is a required precondition for the cancer treatment with image- guided radiation therapy. The automation of the segmentation task is therefore of high clinical relevance. Deep learning (DL)-based medi...
