Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) is a well-established technique in radiation therapy (RT) for treating small-size brain tumors. It administers highly concentrated doses during each treatment fraction, with even minor dose errors posing a significant ...
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounting for over 85% of cases and poor prognosis in advanced stages. This study explored shifts in circulating metabolite levels in NSCLC p...

INTRODUCTION: Use of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) for central lung tumors can result in up to a 35% incidence of late pulmonary toxicity. We evaluated an automated scoring method to quantify post-SABR bronchial changes by using artificia...
Online adaptive radiotherapy (OART) is a promising technique for delivering stereotactic accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI), as lumpectomy cavities vary in location and size between simulation and treatment. However, OART is resource-inten...
We developed artificial intelligence models to predict the brain metastasis (BM) treatment response after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) using longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data and evaluated prediction accuracy changes according to ...
OBJECTIVE: Radiation necrosis (RN) can be difficult to radiographically discern from tumor progression after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). The objective of this study was to investigate the utility of radiomics and machine learning (ML) to differe...
BACKGROUND: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) effectively treats brain metastases. It can provide local control, symptom relief, and improved survival rates, but it poses challenges in selecting optimal candidates, determining dose and fractionation, m...
INTRODUCTION: To investigate the predictive value of the pre-treatment diffusion parameters of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) using artificial intelligence (AI) for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response in patients with low...

PURPOSE: To develop a novel deep ensemble learning model for accurate prediction of brain metastasis (BM) local control outcomes after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS).
BACKGROUND: Stereotactic body radiotherapy of thoracic and abdominal tumors has to account for respiratory intrafractional tumor motion. Commonly, an external breathing signal is continuously acquired that serves as a surrogate of the tumor motion an...
