PURPOSE: Given the limitations of extant models for normal tissue complication probability estimation for osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the mandible, the purpose of this study was to enrich statistical inference by exploiting structural properties of d...
BACKGROUND: Radiotherapy (RT) is an important treatment modality for patients with brain malignancies. Traditionally, computed tomography (CT) images are used for RT treatment planning whereas magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images are used for tumo...
BACKGROUND: Total marrow irradiation (TMI) and total marrow and lymphoid irradiation (TMLI) have the advantages. However, delineating target lesions according to TMI and TMLI plans is labor-intensive and time-consuming. In addition, although the deli...
