A deep learning model based on Mamba for automatic segmentation in cervical cancer brachytherapy.

Scientific reports
This study developed and evaluated an automatic segmentation model based on the Mamba framework (AM-UNet) for rapid and precise delineation of high-risk clinical target volume (HRCTV) and organs at risk (OARs) in cervical cancer brachytherapy. Using ...

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...

Establishing a Deep Learning Model That Integrates Pretreatment and Midtreatment Computed Tomography to Predict Treatment Response in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Patients with identical stages or similar tumor volumes can vary significantly in their responses to radiation therapy (RT) due to individual characteristics, making personalized RT for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) challenging. This st...

Direct-to-Treatment Adaptive Radiation Therapy: Live Planning of Spine Metastases Using Novel Cone Beam Computed Tomography.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)-based online adaptive radiation therapy is carried out using a synthetic CT (sCT) created through deformable registration between the patient-specific fan-beam CT, fan-beam computed tomography (FBCT), and...

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...
