The enhanced dosimetric performance of knowledge-based volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) planning might be jointly contributed by the patient-specific optimization objectives, as estimated by the RapidPlan model, and by the potentially improved...
Spectral CT using a photon counting x-ray detector (PCXD) shows great potential for measuring material composition based on energy dependent x-ray attenuation. Spectral CT is especially suited for imaging with K-edge contrast agents to address the ot...
In this article, an approach to compute the dose conversion coefficients (DCCs) is described for the computational voxel phantom 'High-Definition Reference Korean-Man' (HDRK-Man) using artificial neural networks (ANN). For this purpose, the voxel pha...
Bioinspired photonic hydrogels hold promise as sensors; however, their use in triple-analyte sensing optical devices has been minimally explored. Temperature, serum Fe levels, and X-ray doses are critical factors for predicting and monitoring medical...
In this work, we introduce a benchtop, turn-table photon-counting (PC) micro-computed tomography (CT) scanner and highlight its application for dynamic small animal perfusion imaging.Built on recently published hardware, the system now features a CdT...
The aim of this study is to remove scattered photons and beam hardening effect in cone beam CT (CBCT) images and make an image available for treatment planning. To remove scattered photons and beam hardening effect, a convolutional neural network (CN...
