OBJECTIVE: To develop high-quality synthetic CT (sCT) generation method from low-dose cone-beam CT (CBCT) images by using attention-guided generative adversarial networks (AGGAN) and apply these images to dose calculations in radiotherapy.
PURPOSE: We developed a novel dose verification method using a camera-based radioluminescence imaging system (CRIS) combined with a deep learning-based signal processing technique.
PURPOSE: The purposes of this experimental study were to compare the quantitative and qualitative visibility of in-stent restenosis between conventional-resolution CT (CRCT) and ultra-high-resolution CT (U-HRCT) and to investigate the effects of the ...

BACKGROUND: Retained surgical items are a serious human error. Surgical sponges account for 70% of retained surgical items. To prevent retained surgical sponges, it is important to establish a system that can identify errors and avoid the occurrence ...
PURPOSE: The study aims at a novel dosimetry methodology to reconstruct a 3D dose distribution as imparted to a virtual cylindrical phantom using an electronic portal imaging device (EPID).

OBJECTIVE: Soft tissue deformation and ruptures complicate needle placement. However, ruptures at tissue interfaces also contain information which helps physicians to navigate through different layers. This navigation task can be challenging, wheneve...
BACKGROUND: Sparse-view CT image reconstruction problems encountered in dynamic CT acquisitions are technically challenging. Recently, many deep learning strategies have been proposed to reconstruct CT images from sparse-view angle acquisitions showi...
A CNN based method for cardiac MRI tag tracking was developed and validated. A synthetic data simulator was created to generate large amounts of training data using natural images, a Bloch equation simulation, a broad range of tissue properties, and ...
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of two deep learning image reconstruction (DLR) algorithms in chest computed tomography (CT) with different clinical indications.
