PURPOSE: Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is the gold standard in image-guided brachytherapy (IGBT) due to its superior soft-tissue contrast for target and organs-at-risk (OARs) delineation. Accurate and fast segmentation of MR images are very importa...
PURPOSE: To propose a clinically feasible automatic planning solution for external beam intensity-modulated radiotherapy, including dose prediction via a deep learning and voxel-based optimization strategy.
BACKGROUND: The evaluation of automatic segmentation algorithms is commonly performed using geometric metrics. An analysis based on dosimetric parameters might be more relevant in clinical practice but is often lacking in the literature. The aim of t...
PURPOSE: Typically, the current dose prediction models are limited to small amounts of data and require retraining for a specific site, often leading to suboptimal performance. We propose a site-agnostic, three-dimensional dose distribution predictio...
PURPOSE: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is frequently used for accurate image-guided radiation therapy. However, the poor CBCT image quality prevents its further clinical use. Thus, it is important to improve the HU accuracy and structure prese...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers excellent soft-tissue contrast enabling the contouring of targets and organs at risk during gynecological interstitial brachytherapy procedure. Despite its advantage, one of the main obstacles preventing a tran...
AIM: To compare the machine learning computed tomography (CT) quantification tool, Computer-Aided Lung Informatics for Pathology Evaluation and Ratings (CALIPER) to pulmonary function testing (PFT) in assessing idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) for...
To develop a novel deep learning-based 3Ddose reconstruction framework with an electronic portal imaging device (EPID) for magnetic resonance-linear accelerators (MR-LINACs).The proposed method directly back-projected 2D portal dose into 3D patient c...
PURPOSE: Applications of deep learning (DL) are essential to realizing an effective adaptive radiotherapy (ART) workflow. Despite the promise demonstrated by DL approaches in several critical ART tasks, there remain unsolved challenges to achieve sat...
