BACKGROUND: The evaluation of automatic segmentation algorithms is commonly performed using geometric metrics. An analysis based on dosimetric parameters might be more relevant in clinical practice but is often lacking in the literature. The aim of t...
To develop a novel deep learning-based 3Ddose reconstruction framework with an electronic portal imaging device (EPID) for magnetic resonance-linear accelerators (MR-LINACs).The proposed method directly back-projected 2D portal dose into 3D patient c...
The successful use of artificial intelligence (AI) for diagnostic purposes has prompted the application of AI-based cancer imaging analysis to address other, more complex, clinical needs. In this Perspective, we discuss the next generation of challen...
PURPOSE: We developed a novel dose verification method using a camera-based radioluminescence imaging system (CRIS) combined with a deep learning-based signal processing technique.
PURPOSE: The study aims at a novel dosimetry methodology to reconstruct a 3D dose distribution as imparted to a virtual cylindrical phantom using an electronic portal imaging device (EPID).

Advances in artificial intelligence-based methods have led to the development and publication of numerous systems for auto-segmentation in radiotherapy. These systems have the potential to decrease contour variability, which has been associated with ...
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the epistemic (or fuzzy) uncertainty, arising due to limited data samples in the measurement of the output factors (OFs) of the small fields using Fuzzy Set Theory (FST).
PURPOSE: External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) treatment planning requires a fast and accurate method of calculating the dose delivered by a clinical treatment plan. However, existing methods of calculating dose distributions have limitations. Monte Carl...
Exposure to appropriate doses of UV radiation provides enormously health and medical treatment benefits including psoriasis. Typical hospital-based phototherapy cabinets contain a bunch of artificial lamps, either broad-band (main emission spectrum 2...
BACKGROUND: In breast cancer patients receiving radiotherapy (RT), accurate target delineation and reduction of radiation doses to the nearby normal organs is important. However, manual clinical target volume (CTV) and organs-at-risk (OARs) segmentat...
