Clinical validation of a commercially available deep learning software for synthetic CT generation for brain.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Most studies on synthetic computed tomography (sCT) generation for brain rely on in-house developed methods. They often focus on performance rather than clinical feasibility. Therefore, the aim of this work was to validate sCT images gene...

AAPM Task Group 264: The safe clinical implementation of MLC tracking in radiotherapy.

Medical physics
The era of real-time radiotherapy is upon us. Robotic and gimbaled linac tracking are clinically established technologies with the clinical realization of couch tracking in development. Multileaf collimators (MLCs) are a standard equipment for most c...

Radiation therapy dose prediction for left-sided breast cancers using two-dimensional and three-dimensional deep learning models.

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: To develop a deep learning model capable of producing clinically acceptable dose distributions for left-sided breast cancers for 3D-CRT while exploring the use of two-dimensional versus three-dimensional anatomical data.

Computation of epistemic uncertainty due to limited data samples in small field dosimetry using Fuzzy Set Theory.

The British journal of radiology
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).

Radiation dose calculation in 3D heterogeneous media using artificial neural networks.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) treatment planning requires a fast and accurate method of calculating the dose delivered by a clinical treatment plan. However, existing methods of calculating dose distributions have limitations. Monte Carl...

Deep learning dose prediction for IMRT of esophageal cancer: The effect of data quality and quantity on model performance.
