PURPOSE: Recent development in positron emission tomography (PET) dramatically increased the effective sensitivity by increasing the geometric coverage leading to total-body PET imaging. This encouraging breakthrough brings the hope of ultra-low dose...
In this narrative review, we address the ongoing challenges of lung cancer (LC) screening using chest low-dose computerized tomography (LDCT) and explore the contributions of artificial intelligence (AI), in overcoming them. We focus on evaluating th...
BACKGROUND: To retrospectively assess the added value of an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm for detecting pulmonary nodules on ultra-low-dose computed tomography (ULDCT) performed at the emergency department (ED).

OBJECTIVE: We investigated the feasibility of deep learning-based ultra-low dose kV-fan-beam computed tomography (kV-FBCT) image enhancement algorithm for clinical application in abdominal and pelvic tumor radiotherapy.
OBJECTIVE: To assess the viability of using ultra-low radiation and contrast medium (CM) dosage in aortic computed tomography angiography (CTA) through the application of low tube voltage (60kVp) and a novel deep learning image reconstruction algorit...
. Intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) is susceptible to uncertainties in patient setup and proton range. Robust optimization is employed in IMPT treatment planning to ensure sufficient coverage of the clinical target volume (CTV) in predefined ...
