Deep learning-based algorithms for low-dose CT imaging: A review.

European journal of radiology
The computed tomography (CT) technique is extensively employed as an imaging modality in clinical settings. The radiation dose of CT, however, is significantly high, thereby raising concerns regarding the potential radiation damage it may cause. The ...

A physically constrained Monte Carlo-Neural Network coupling algorithm for BNCT dose calculation.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: In boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT)-a form of binary radiotherapy-the primary challenge in treatment planning systems for dose calculations arises from the time-consuming nature of the Monte Carlo (MC) method. Recent progress, includi...

Automated size-specific dose estimates framework in thoracic CT using convolutional neural network based on U-Net model.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: This study aimed to develop an automated method that uses a convolutional neural network (CNN) for calculating size-specific dose estimates (SSDEs) based on the corrected effective diameter (D ) in thoracic computed tomography (CT).

Improved image quality in CT pulmonary angiography using deep learning-based image reconstruction.

Scientific reports
We investigated the effect of deep learning-based image reconstruction (DLIR) compared to iterative reconstruction on image quality in CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) for suspected pulmonary embolism (PE). For 220 patients with suspected PE, CTPA stu...

Deep Learning-Based Reconstruction Improves the Image Quality of Low-Dose CT Colonography.

Academic radiology
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the image quality of low-dose CT colonography (CTC) using deep learning-based reconstruction (DLR) compared to iterative reconstruction (IR).

CT image denoising methods for image quality improvement and radiation dose reduction.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
With the ever-increasing use of computed tomography (CT), concerns about its radiation dose have become a significant public issue. To address the need for radiation dose reduction, CT denoising methods have been widely investigated and applied in lo...

Artificial intelligence-based image-domain material decomposition in single-energy computed tomography for head and neck cancer.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: While dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) images provide clinically useful information than single-energy CT (SECT), SECT remains the most widely used CT system globally, and only a few institutions can use DECT. This study aimed to estab...

Deep-learning reconstruction with low-contrast media and low-kilovoltage peak for CT of the liver.

Clinical radiology
AIM: To compare images using reduced CM, low-kVp scanning and DLR reconstruction with conventional images (no CM reduction, normal tube voltage, reconstructed with HBIR. To compare images using reduced contrast media (CM), low kilovoltage peak (kVp) ...
