PURPOSE: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a global health concern, marked by increasing incidence rates and poor outcomes. This study seeks to develop a robust predictive model by integrating radiomics and deep learning features with clinical d...
BACKGROUND: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is widely used for managing brain metastases (BMs), but an adverse effect, radionecrosis, complicates post-SRS management. Differentiating radionecrosis from tumor recurrence non-invasively remains a major ...

PURPOSE: This study evaluates the feasibility of using robotic-assisted bronchoscopy with cone beam computed tomography (RB-CBCT) platform to perform low-dose-rate brachytherapy (LDR-BT) implants in a mechanically ventilated human cadaveric model. Po...
BACKGROUND: Dosimetric commissioning and quality assurance (QA) for linear accelerators (LINACs) present a significant challenge for clinical physicists due to the high measurement workload and stringent precision standards. This challenge is exacerb...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Timely identification of local failure after stereotactic radiotherapy for brain metastases allows for treatment modifications, potentially improving outcomes. While previous studies showed that adding radiomics or Deep Learni...
BACKGROUND: Accurate calculation of lung cancer dose using the Monte Carlo (MC) algorithm in CyberKnife (CK) is essential for precise planning. We aim to employ deep learning to directly predict the 3D dose distribution calculated by the MC algorithm...
INTRODUCTION: - Accurate detection, segmentation, and volumetric analysis of brain lesions are essential in neuro-oncology. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based models have improved the efficiency of these processes. This study evaluated an AI-based mo...
PURPOSE: Recent papers suggested a correlation between the risk of distant metastasis (DM) and dose outside the PTV, though conclusions in different publications conflicted. This study resolves these conflicts and provides a compelling explanation of...
