A high-performance method of deep learning for prostate MR-only radiotherapy planning using an optimized Pix2Pix architecture.

Physica medica : PM : an international journal devoted to the applications of physics to medicine and biology : official journal of the Italian Association of Biomedical Physics (AIFB)
PURPOSE: The first aim was to generate and compare synthetic-CT (sCT) images using a conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN) method (Pix2Pix) for MRI-only prostate radiotherapy planning by testing several generators, loss functions, and hyp...

An uncertainty-aware deep learning architecture with outlier mitigation for prostate gland segmentation in radiotherapy treatment planning.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Task automation is essential for efficient and consistent image segmentation in radiation oncology. We report on a deep learning architecture, comprising a U-Net and a variational autoencoder (VAE) for automatic contouring of the prostate gl...

Impact of Early Dorsal Venous Complex Ligation on Urinary Continence Recovery after Robot-assisted Radical Prostatectomy: Results from a Phase 3 Randomized Controlled Trial.

European urology focus
BACKGROUND: Whether early ligation of the dorsal venous complex (DVC) might improve recovery of urinary continence (UC) after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) has never been investigated in a prospective randomized study.

Biparametric prostate MRI: impact of a deep learning-based software and of quantitative ADC values on the inter-reader agreement of experienced and inexperienced readers.

La Radiologia medica
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the impact of an artificial intelligence (AI) software and quantitative ADC (qADC) on the inter-reader agreement, diagnostic performance, and reporting times of prostate biparametric MRI (bpMRI) for experienced and inexperie...

Structural design and analysis of pneumatic prostate seed implantation robot applied in magnetic resonance imaging environment.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: The method of MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) image-guided robot for prostate seed implantation has developed rapidly in recent years. During the operation, although the puncture effect guided by MRI is very good, it is difficult for con...

Domain generalization for prostate segmentation in transrectal ultrasound images: A multi-center study.

Medical image analysis
Prostate biopsy and image-guided treatment procedures are often performed under the guidance of ultrasound fused with magnetic resonance images (MRI). Accurate image fusion relies on accurate segmentation of the prostate on ultrasound images. Yet, th...

Effects of nerve-sparing procedures on surgical margins after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Journal of the Chinese Medical Association : JCMA
BACKGROUND: Nerve-sparing (NS) techniques could potentially increase positive surgical margins after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Nevertheless, the available studies have revealed ambiguous results among distinct groups. This study pu...
