Deep learning architecture with shunted transformer and 3D deformable convolution for voxel-level dose prediction of head and neck tumors.

Physical and engineering sciences in medicine
Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) has been widely used in treating head and neck tumors. However, due to the complex anatomical structures in the head and neck region, it is challenging for the plan optimizer to rapidly generate clinically...

Integrating Deep Learning-Based Dose Distribution Prediction with Bayesian Networks for Decision Support in Radiotherapy for Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer.

Cancer research and treatment
PURPOSE: Selecting the better techniques to harbor optimal motion management, either a stereotactic linear accelerator delivery using TrueBeam (TBX) or magnetic resonance-guided gated delivery using MRIdian (MRG), is time-consuming and costly. To add...

Physica medica : PM : an international journal devoted to the applications of physics to medicine and biology : official journal of the Italian Association of Biomedical Physics (AIFB)
PURPOSE: The purpose of the study is to investigate the clinical application of deep learning (DL)-assisted automatic radiotherapy planning for lung cancer.

Improving 3D dose prediction for breast radiotherapy using novel glowing masks and gradient-weighted loss functions.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: The quality of treatment plans for breast cancer can vary greatly. This variation could be reduced by using dose prediction to automate treatment planning. Our work investigates novel methods for training deep-learning models that are cap...

Improving the performance of deep learning models in predicting and classifying gamma passing rates with discriminative features and a class balancing technique: a retrospective cohort study.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to improve the deep learning (DL) model performance in predicting and classifying IMRT gamma passing rate (GPR) by using input features related to machine parameters and a class balancing technique.

Enhanced 3D dose prediction for hypofractionated SRS (gamma knife radiosurgery) in brain tumor using cascaded-deep-supervised convolutional neural network.

Physical and engineering sciences in medicine
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 ...

Combined deep learning and radiomics in pretreatment radiation esophagitis prediction for patients with esophageal cancer underwent volumetric modulated arc therapy.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
PURPOSE: To develop a combined radiomics and deep learning (DL) model in predicting radiation esophagitis (RE) of a grade ≥ 2 for patients with esophageal cancer (EC) underwent volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) based on computed tomography (CT)...

Proton spot dose estimation based on positron activity distributions with neural network.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Positron emission tomography (PET) has been investigated for its ability to reconstruct proton-induced positron activity distributions in proton therapy. This technique holds potential for range verification in clinical practice. Recently...

Patient-specific deep learning for 3D protoacoustic image reconstruction and dose verification in proton therapy.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Protoacoustic (PA) imaging has the potential to provide real-time 3D dose verification of proton therapy. However, PA images are susceptible to severe distortion due to limited angle acquisition. Our previous studies showed the potential ...

Synthetic CT generation for pelvic cases based on deep learning in multi-center datasets.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To investigate the feasibility of synthesizing computed tomography (CT) images from magnetic resonance (MR) images in multi-center datasets using generative adversarial networks (GANs) for rectal cancer MR-only radiotherapy.
