BACKGROUND: The tangential field-in-field (FIF) technique is a widely used method in breast radiation therapy, known for its efficiency and the reduced number of fields required in treatment planning. However, it is labor-intensive, requiring manual ...
This study is aimed to clarify the effectiveness of the image-rotation technique and zooming augmentation to improve the accuracy of the deep learning (DL)-based dose conversion from pencil beam (PB) to Monte Carlo (MC) in proton beam therapy (PBT). ...
This study investigates key factors influencing deep learning-based dose prediction models for head and neck cancer radiation therapy. The goal is to evaluate model accuracy, robustness, and computational efficiency, and to identify key components ne...
