RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To establish an automated osteoporosis detection model based on low-dose abdominal CT (LDCT). This model combined a deep learning-based automatic segmentation of the proximal femur with a radiomics-based bone status classifi...
In digital radiography, image quality is synergistically affected by anatomy-specific examinations, exposure factors, body parameters, detector types, and vendors/systems. However, estimating appropriate exposure factors before radiography with optim...
PURPOSE: To compare the quality of standard 512-matrix, standard 1024-matrix, and Swin2SR-based 2048-matrix phantom images under different scanning protocols.
BACKGROUND: Previous knowledge-based planning studies have demonstrated the feasibility of predicting three-dimensional photon dose distributions and subsequently generating treatment plans. The steepness of dose fall-off represents a critical metric...
Unsupervised anomaly detection (UAD) is crucial in low-dose computed tomography (LDCT). Recent AI technologies, leveraging global features, have enabled effective UAD with minimal training data of normal patients. However, this approach, devoid of ut...
BACKGROUND: Computed tomography (CT) scans are a major source of medical radiation exposure worldwide. In countries like China, the frequency of CT scans has grown rapidly, thus making available a large volume of organ dose information. With modern c...
In bone-imaging research, in situ synchrotron radiation micro-computed tomography (SRµCT) mechanical tests are used to investigate the mechanical properties of bone in relation to its microstructure. Low-dose computed tomography (CT) is used to prese...
BACKGROUND: Conventional proton dose calculation methods are either time- and resource-intensive, like Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, or they sacrifice accuracy, as seen with analytical methods. This trade-off between computational efficiency and accu...
To evaluate the impact of beam mask implementation and data aggregation on artificial intelligence-based dose prediction accuracy in proton therapy, with a focus on scenarios involving limited or highly heterogeneous datasets.In this study, 541 prost...
INTRODUCTION: A hybrid angio-CT system with 320-row detectors and deep learning-based reconstruction (DLR), provides additional imaging via 4D-CT angiography (CTA), potentially shortening procedure time and reducing DSA acquisitions, contrast media, ...
