Rapid esophageal radiation treatment planning is often obstructed by manually adjusting optimization parameters. The adjustment process is commonly guided by the dose-volume histogram (DVH), which evaluates dosimetry at planning target volume (PTV) a...
Pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) are well-known precursors of pancreatic cancer. Their diagnosis can be challenging as their behavior varies from benign to malignant disease. Precise and timely management of malignant pancreatic cysts might prevent t...
OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively assess the effect of CT slice thickness on the reproducibility of radiomic features (RFs) of lung cancer, and to investigate whether convolutional neural network (CNN)-based super-resolution (SR) algorithms can improve t...
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...

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...
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...

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...
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...
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...
In 2018, Defence Research and Development Canada, in partnership with Natural Resources Canada, led a field trial of survey and mapping of a large dispersion of radioactivity using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The intent was to disperse La materi...
