. CBCTs in image-guided radiotherapy provide crucial anatomy information for patient setup and plan evaluation. Longitudinal CBCT image registration could quantify the inter-fractional anatomic changes, e.g. tumor shrinkage, and daily OAR variation t...
BACKGROUND: The growing adoption of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided radiation therapy (RT) platforms and a focus on MRI-only RT workflows have brought the technical challenge of synthetic computed tomography (sCT) reconstruction to the forefr...
BACKGROUND: We reported the concept of patient-specific deep learning (DL) for real-time markerless tumor segmentation in image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT). The method was aimed to control the attention of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) by artif...

INTRODUCTION: This study aims to apply a conditional Generative Adversarial Network (cGAN) to generate synthetic Computed Tomography (sCT) from 0.35 Tesla Magnetic Resonance (MR) images of the thorax.
PURPOSE: To develop a geometry-informed deep learning framework for volumetric MRI with sub-second acquisition time in support of 3D motion tracking, which is highly desirable for improved radiotherapy precision but hindered by the long image acquisi...
Growing number of methods for attenuation-coefficient map estimation from magnetic resonance (MR) images have recently been proposed because of the increasing interest in MR-guided radiotherapy and the introduction of positron emission tomography (PE...

PURPOSE: The segmentation of organs at risk (OAR) is a required precondition for the cancer treatment with image- guided radiation therapy. The automation of the segmentation task is therefore of high clinical relevance. Deep learning (DL)-based medi...
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: For pancreatic cancer patients, image guided radiation therapy and real-time tumor tracking (RTTT) techniques can deliver radiation to the target accurately. Currently, for the radiation therapy machine with kV X-ray imaging systems, interna...
