BACKGROUND: Adaptive radiotherapy (ART) is an advanced form of image-guided radiotherapy that involves the re-contouring and re-planning of a patient's treatment plan, either while the patient is on the table (online) or in between fractions (offline...
INTRODUCTION: Vestibular schwannoma is the most common neoplasm located at the skull base. The therapeutic strategy for managing vestibular schwannoma is formulated based on individual patient characteristics and specific imaging findings. Recently, ...
Brain metastases (BMs) are the most common intracranial tumors and stereotactic radiotherapy improved the life quality of patient with BMs, while it requires more time and experience to delineate BMs precisely by oncologists. Deep Learning techniques...
Meningiomas and schwannomas are benign tumors that affect the central nervous system, comprising up to one-third of intracranial neoplasms. Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS), or stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), is a form of radiation therapy. Although ...

This study introduces a novel approach to improve Cone Beam CT (CBCT) image quality by developing a synthetic CT (sCT) generation method using CycleGAN with a Vision Transformer (ViT) and an Adaptive Fourier Neural Operator (AFNO).A dataset of 20 pro...
PURPOSE: Accurate identification of the primary tumor diagnosis of patients who have undergone stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) from electronic health records is a critical but challenging task. Traditional methods of identifying the primary tumor his...

Prostate Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy (SABR) is an ultra-hypofractionated treatment where small setup errors can lead to higher doses to organs at risk (OARs). Although bowel and bladder preparation protocols reduce inter-fraction variabil...
BACKGROUND: Although gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) is commonly used to treat benign brain tumors, such as meningioma, irradiating the surrounding brain tissue can lead to perifocal edema within a few months after the procedure. Volumetric assessmen...
. The dose distribution of lung cancer patients treated with the CyberKnife (CK) system is influenced by various factors, including tumor location and the direction of CK beams. The objective of this study is to present a deep learning approach that ...
