BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Magnetic Resonance (MR)-only radiotherapy enables the use of MR without the uncertainty of MR-Computed Tomography (CT) registration. This requires a synthetic CT (sCT) for dose calculations, which can be facilitated by a novel...
To compare the efficacy and safety of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) performed using the KangDuo surgical robot system to the da Vinci Si robotic system in clinically localized prostate cancer (KD-RARP DV-RARP). A total o...

BACKGROUND: An informed decision regarding a treatment option requires data on its long-term efficacy and side-effect profile. While the side-effects of robotic radical prostatectomy have been well-quantified, the data on its long-term efficacy are l...

PURPOSE: We previously developed a virtual treatment planner (VTP), an artificial intelligence robot, operating a treatment planning system (TPS). Using deep reinforcement learning guided by human knowledge, we trained the VTP to autonomously adjust ...
. Using MV images for real-time image guided radiation therapy (IGRT) is ideal as it does not require additional imaging equipment, adds no additional imaging dose and provides motion data in the treatment beam frame of reference. However, accurate t...
: Inguinal hernia (IH) is a usual finding in men with prostate cancer (PCa) due to their similar risk factors, such as age, gender, and smoking. This study aims to present a single institution's experience with simultaneous IH repair (IHR) and roboti...
BACKGROUND: Patients with prostate cancer are offered a wide range of treatments from radiation therapy to chemotherapy to surgery. When giving radiation therapy, SpaceOAR hydrogel has been part of the standard treatment for the last decade to reduce...
In 2018, the da Vinci Single Port (SP) robotic system was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for urologic procedures. Available studies for the application of SP to prostate cancer surgery are limited. The aim of our study is to summariz...
There is a growing piece of evidence that artificial intelligence may be helpful in the entire prostate cancer disease continuum. However, building machine learning algorithms robust to inter- and intra-radiologist segmentation variability is still a...
