The chapter explores the extensive integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare systems, with a specific focus on its application in stereotactic radiosurgery. The rapid evolution of AI technology has led to promising developments in thi...
BACKGROUND/AIM: Overall survival (OS)-predictive models to clinically stratify patients with stage I Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) undergoing stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) are still unavailable. The aim of this work was to build a p...

This study aims to develop a deep learning (DL)-based (Mask R-CNN) method to predict the internal target volume (ITV) in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images for lung stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) patients and to evaluate the predictio...
The aim of this study was to develop an automated segmentation approach for small gross tumor volumes (GTVs) in 3D planning computed tomography (CT) images using dense V-networks (DVNs) that offer more advantages in segmenting smaller structures than...

The aim of this work is to study the dosimetric effect from generated synthetic computed tomography (sCT) from magnetic resonance (MR) images using a deep learning algorithm for Gamma Knife (GK) stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). The Monte Carlo (MC) m...
BACKGROUND: It is unclear whether radiomic phenotypes of brain metastases (BM) are related to radiation therapy prognosis. This study assessed whether a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based radiomics model which learned computer tomography (CT) i...
