PURPOSE: Synthetic computed tomography (sCT)-algorithms, which generate computed tomography images from magnetic resonance imaging data, are becoming part of the clinical radiotherapy workflow. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate and ...
BACKGROUND: The electronic portal imaging device (EPID) can be used in vivo, to detect on-treatment errors by evaluating radiation exiting a patient. To detect deviations from the planning intent, image predictions need to be modeled based on the pat...
BACKGROUND: Accurate calculation of lung cancer dose using the Monte Carlo (MC) algorithm in CyberKnife (CK) is essential for precise planning. We aim to employ deep learning to directly predict the 3D dose distribution calculated by the MC algorithm...
