Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is now the standard of care for brain metastases (BMs) patients. The SRS treatment planning process requires precise target delineation, which in clinical workflow for patients with multiple (>4) BMs (mBMs) could becom...
Stereotactic radiosurgery planning for cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVM) is complicated by the variability in appearance of an AVM nidus across different imaging modalities. We developed a deep learning approach to automatically segment cere...

PURPOSE: We develop a deep learning (DL) radiomics model and integrate it with circulating tumor cell (CTC) counts as a clinically useful prognostic marker for predicting recurrence outcomes of early-stage (ES) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) pati...
This study investigated the effectiveness of pre-treatment quantitative MRI and clinical features along with machine learning techniques to predict local failure in patients with brain metastasis treated with hypo-fractionated stereotactic radiation ...

PURPOSE: The accuracy of the CyberKnife Synchrony Respiratory Tracking System is dependent on the breathing pattern of a patient. Therefore, the tracking error in each patient must be determined. Support vector regression (SVR) can be used to easily ...
The study aimed to analyze potential prognostic factors in patients treated with robotic radiosurgery for brain metastases irrespective of primary tumor location and create a simple prognostic score that can be used without a full diagnostic workup. ...
PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to improve the performance of machine learning (ML) models in predicting response of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) by integrating image features from pre-treatment c...
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the epistemic (or fuzzy) uncertainty, arising due to limited data samples in the measurement of the output factors (OFs) of the small fields using Fuzzy Set Theory (FST).
PURPOSE: Choroidal metastases occur in many patients with systemic cancer and limit quality of life due to visual deterioration or pain. The limited prognosis of these patients demand treatment approaches that aim at a quick response and easy applica...
Artificial intelligence (AI) has been applied with considerable success in the fields of radiology, pathology, and neurosurgery. It is expected that AI will soon be used to optimize strategies for the clinical management of patients based on intensiv...
