Learning-based automatic segmentation of arteriovenous malformations on contrast CT images in brain stereotactic radiosurgery.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is widely used to obliterate arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). Its performance relies on the accuracy of delineating the target AVM. Manual segmentation during a framed SRS procedure is time consuming and su...

Dosimetric study on learning-based cone-beam CT correction in adaptive radiation therapy.

Medical dosimetry : official journal of the American Association of Medical Dosimetrists
INTRODUCTION: Cone-beam CT (CBCT) image quality is important for its quantitative analysis in adaptive radiation therapy. However, due to severe artifacts, the CBCTs are primarily used for verifying patient setup only so far. We have developed a lear...

Neural Networks for Deep Radiotherapy Dose Analysis and Prediction of Liver SBRT Outcomes.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a relatively novel treatment modality, with little post-treatment prognostic information reported. This study proposes a novel neural network based paradigm for accurate prediction of liver SBRT outcomes....

Automated noncoplanar treatment planning strategy in stereotactic radiosurgery of multiple cranial metastases: HyperArc and CyberKnife dose distributions.

Medical dosimetry : official journal of the American Association of Medical Dosimetrists
The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the dosimetric effects of HyperArc-based stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and a robotic radiosurgery system-based planning using CyberKnife for multiple cranial metastases. In total, 11 cancer pati...

Intervening Nidal Brain Parenchyma and Risk of Radiation-Induced Changes After Radiosurgery for Brain Arteriovenous Malformation: A Study Using an Unsupervised Machine Learning Algorithm.

World neurosurgery
OBJECTIVE: To assess the sensitivity and specificity of arteriovenous malformation (AVM) nidal component identification and quantification using an unsupervised machine learning algorithm and to evaluate the association between intervening nidal brai...

Optimization based trajectory planning for real-time 6DoF robotic patient motion compensation systems.

PloS one
PURPOSE: Robotic stabilization of a therapeutic radiation beam with respect to a dynamically moving tumor target can be accomplished either by moving the radiation source, the patient, or both. As the treatment beam is on during this process, the pri...

Predictors of Nodal and Metastatic Failure in Early Stage Non-small-cell Lung Cancer After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy.

Clinical lung cancer
INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND: Many patients with early stage non-small-cell lung cancer (ES-NSCLC) undergoing stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) develop metastases, which is associated with poor outcomes. We sought to identify factors predictive o...

DoseNet: a volumetric dose prediction algorithm using 3D fully-convolutional neural networks.

Physics in medicine and biology
The goal of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of a novel fully-convolutional volumetric dose prediction neural network (DoseNet) and test its performance on a cohort of prostate stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) patients. DoseNet is su...
