Closing the gap in plan quality: Leveraging deep-learning dose prediction for adaptive radiotherapy.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: Balancing quality and efficiency has been a challenge for online adaptive therapy. Most systems start the online re-optimization with the original planning goals. While some systems allow planners to modify the planning goals, achieving a hi...

Initial characterization of a novel dual-robot orthovoltage radiotherapy system.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
Adequate access to radiotherapy is a critical global concern affecting low-resource settings such as low- and middle-income countries and rural regions. We propose to reduce this disparity by developing a novel low-cost radiotherapy device that treat...

Enhanced dose prediction for head and neck cancer artificial intelligence-driven radiotherapy based on transfer learning with limited training data.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: Training deep learning dose prediction models for the latest cutting-edge radiotherapy techniques, such as AI-based nodal radiotherapy (AINRT) and Daily Adaptive AI-based nodal radiotherapy (DA-AINRT), is challenging due to limited data. Thi...

Geometric and Dosimetric Evaluation of a RayStation Deep Learning Model for Auto-Segmentation of Organs at Risk in a Real-World Head and Neck Cancer Dataset.

Clinical oncology (Royal College of Radiologists (Great Britain))
AIMS: To assess geometric accuracy and dosimetric impact of a deep learning segmentation (DLS) model on a large, diverse dataset of head and neck cancer (HNC) patients treated with intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT).

Radiotherapy dose prediction using off-the-shelf segmentation networks: A feasibility study with GammaPod planning.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Radiotherapy requires precise, patient-specific treatment planning to achieve high-quality dose distributions that improve patient outcomes. Traditional manual planning is time-consuming and clinically impractical for performing necessary...

A knowledge-based planning model to identify fraction-reduction opportunities in brain stereotactic radiotherapy.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate a HyperArc-based RapidPlan (HARP) model for three-fraction brain stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) plans to then use to replan previously treated five-fraction SRT plans. Demonstrating the possibility of reducing the ...

Dose prediction via deep learning to enhance treatment planning of lung radiotherapy including simultaneous integrated boost techniques.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Recent studies have shown deep learning techniques are able to predict three-dimensional (3D) dose distributions of radiotherapy treatment plans. However, their use in dose prediction for treatments with varied prescription doses includin...

Multi-task learning for automated contouring and dose prediction in radiotherapy.

Physics in medicine and biology
. Deep learning (DL)-based automated contouring and treatment planning has been proven to improve the efficiency and accuracy of radiotherapy. However, conventional radiotherapy treatment planning process has the automated contouring and treatment pl...

Evaluation and failure analysis of four commercial deep learning-based autosegmentation software for abdominal organs at risk.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: Deep learning-based segmentation of organs-at-risk (OAR) is emerging to become mainstream in clinical practice because of the superior performance over atlas and model-based autocontouring methods. While several commercial deep learning-base...

Real-time adaptive proton therapy: An AI-based spatio-temporal mono-energetic dose calculation model (CC-LSTM).

Computers in biology and medicine
PURPOSE: To develop a fully AI-based dose estimation model capable of learning and estimating single pencil beam dose distributions, and to verify its performance by testing the model's generalizability on unseen, previously delivered treatment plans...
