Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) is a specialized CT scan with a lower radiation dose than normal-dose CT. However, the reduced radiation dose can introduce noise and artifacts, affecting diagnostic accuracy. To enhance the LDCT image quality, we ...
BACKGROUND: Radiotherapy requires precise, patient-specific treatment planning to achieve high-quality dose distributions that improve patient outcomes. Traditional manual planning is time-consuming and clinically impractical for performing necessary...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) presents a promising approach to balancing high image quality with reduced radiation exposure in computed tomography (CT) imaging.
BACKGROUND: Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) significantly increases early detection rates of lung cancer and reduces lung cancer-related mortality by 20%. However, many significant screening barriers remain. This study conduct an initial feasibil...

PURPOSE: Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a powerful molecular imaging tool that visualizes radiotracer distribution to reveal physiological processes. Recent advances in total-body PET have enabled low-dose, CT-free imaging; however, accurate o...
BACKGROUND: Recent studies have shown deep learning techniques are able to predict three-dimensional (3D) dose distributions of radiotherapy treatment plans. However, their use in dose prediction for treatments with varied prescription doses includin...
. Deep learning (DL)-based automated contouring and treatment planning has been proven to improve the efficiency and accuracy of radiotherapy. However, conventional radiotherapy treatment planning process has the automated contouring and treatment pl...
Computed tomography (CT) is a crucial medical imaging technique which uses x-ray radiation to identify cancer tissues. Since radiation poses a significant health risk, low dose acquisition procedures need to be adopted. However, low-dose CT (LDCT) ca...
Diagnosing ureteral stones with low-dose CT in patients with metal hardware can be challenging because of image noise. The purpose of this study was to compare ureteral stone detection and image quality of low-dose and conventional CT scans with and...
