Dosimetry-Driven Quality Measure of Brain Pseudo Computed Tomography Generated From Deep Learning for MRI-Only Radiation Therapy Treatment Planning.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: This study aims to evaluate the impact of key parameters on the pseudo computed tomography (pCT) quality generated from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a 3-dimensional (3D) convolutional neural network.

Comparison of CBCT based synthetic CT methods suitable for proton dose calculations in adaptive proton therapy.

Physics in medicine and biology
In-room imaging is a prerequisite for adaptive proton therapy. The use of onboard cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging, which is routinely acquired for patient position verification, can enable daily dose reconstructions and plan adaptation d...

Conventional vs machine learning-based treatment planning in prostate brachytherapy: Results of a Phase I randomized controlled trial.

Brachytherapy
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the noninferiority of Day 30 dosimetry between a machine learning-based treatment planning system for prostate low-dose-rate (LDR) brachytherapy and the conventional, manual planning technique. As a ...

Evaluation of a neural network-based photon beam profile deconvolution method.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: The authors have previously shown the feasibility of using an artificial neural network (ANN) to eliminate the volume average effect (VAE) of scanning ionization chambers (ICs). The purpose of this work was to evaluate the method when applie...

Learning-based estimation of dielectric properties and tissue density in head models for personalized radio-frequency dosimetry.

Physics in medicine and biology
Radio-frequency dosimetry is an important process in assessments for human exposure safety and for compliance of related products. Recently, computational human models generated from medical images have often been used for such assessment, especially...

A Deep Learning-based correction to EPID dosimetry for attenuation and scatter in the Unity MR-Linac system.

Physica medica : PM : an international journal devoted to the applications of physics to medicine and biology : official journal of the Italian Association of Biomedical Physics (AIFB)
PURPOSE: EPID dosimetry in the Unity MR-Linac system allows for reconstruction of absolute dose distributions within the patient geometry. Dose reconstruction is accurate for the parts of the beam arriving at the EPID through the MRI central unattenu...

Machine learning helps identifying volume-confounding effects in radiomics.

Physica medica : PM : an international journal devoted to the applications of physics to medicine and biology : official journal of the Italian Association of Biomedical Physics (AIFB)
Highlighting the risk of biases in radiomics-based models will help improve their quality and increase usage as decision support systems in the clinic. In this study we use machine learning-based methods to identify the presence of volume-confounding...

Deep DoseNet: a deep neural network for accurate dosimetric transformation between different spatial resolutions and/or different dose calculation algorithms for precision radiation therapy.

Physics in medicine and biology
The purpose of this work is to introduce a novel deep learning strategy to obtain highly accurate dose plan by transforming from a dose distribution calculated using a low-cost algorithm (or algorithmic settings). 25 168 slices of dose distribution a...

A novel deep learning model using dosimetric and clinical information for grade 4 radiotherapy-induced lymphopenia prediction.

Physics in medicine and biology
Radiotherapy-induced lymphopenia has increasingly been shown to reduce cancer survivorship. We developed a novel hybrid deep learning model to efficiently integrate an entire set of dosimetric parameters of a radiation treatment plan with a patient's...

Feasibility of two-dimensional dose distribution deconvolution using convolution neural networks.

Medical physics
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...
