PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility of two-dimensional (2D) dose distribution deconvolution using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) instead of an analytical approach for an in-house scintillation detector that has...
In cancer radiation therapy, large tumor motion due to respiration can lead to uncertainties in tumor target delineation and treatment delivery, thus making active motion management an essential step in thoracic and abdominal tumor treatment. In curr...
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S): Online proton range/dose verification based on measurements of proton-induced positron emitters is a promising strategy for quality assurance in proton therapy. Because of the nonlinear correlation between the dose distribution ...
PURPOSE: The three-dimensional digital subtraction angiography (3D DSA) technique is the current standard and is based on both mask and fill runs to enable the subtraction technique. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based 3D angiography (3DA) was develop...

The objective of this article was to evaluate the evidence currently available about the clinical value of artificial intelligence (AI) in breast imaging. Nine experts from the disciplines involved in breast disease management - including physicists ...
PURPOSE: To evaluate image quality (IQ) and radiation dose in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) of the ankle using a novel twin robotic X-ray system.
PURPOSE: Radiation doses accumulated during very complicated image-guided x-ray procedures have the potential to cause stochastic, but also deterministic effects, such as skin rashes or even hair loss. To monitor and reduce radiation-related risks to...
PURPOSE: An important challenge for deep learning models is generalizing to new datasets that may be acquired with acquisition protocols different from the training set. It is not always feasible to expand training data to the range encountered in cl...
