Attention 3D UNET for dose distribution prediction of high-dose-rate brachytherapy of cervical cancer: Intracavitary applicators.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
BACKGROUND: Formulating a clinically acceptable plan within the time-constrained clinical setting of brachytherapy poses challenges to clinicians. Deep learning based dose prediction methods have shown favorable solutions for enhancing efficiency, bu...

Deep learning prediction of scenario doses for direct plan robustness evaluations in IMPT for head-and-neck.

Physics in medicine and biology
. Intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) is susceptible to uncertainties in patient setup and proton range. Robust optimization is employed in IMPT treatment planning to ensure sufficient coverage of the clinical target volume (CTV) in predefined ...

Clinical commissioning and introduction of an in-house artificial intelligence (AI) platform for automated head and neck intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) treatment planning.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To describe the clinical commissioning of an in-house artificial intelligence (AI) treatment planning platform for head-and-neck (HN) Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT).

Clinical target volume (CTV) automatic delineation using deep learning network for cervical cancer radiotherapy: A study with external validation.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: To explore the accuracy and feasibility of a proposed deep learning (DL) algorithm for clinical target volume (CTV) delineation in cervical cancer radiotherapy and evaluate whether it can perform well in external cervical cancer and endometr...

A deep learning-informed interpretation of why and when dose metrics outside the PTV can affect the risk of distant metastasis in SBRT NSCLC patients.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
PURPOSE: Recent papers suggested a correlation between the risk of distant metastasis (DM) and dose outside the PTV, though conclusions in different publications conflicted. This study resolves these conflicts and provides a compelling explanation of...

Artificial intelligence (AI) applications in improvement of IMRT and VMAT radiotherapy treatment planning processes: A systematic review.

Radiography (London, England : 1995)
INTRODUCTION: Radiotherapy is a common option in the treatment of many types of cancer. Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) and Volumetric-Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) are the latest radiotherapy techniques. However, clinicians face problems...

Deep learning-based statistical robustness evaluation of intensity-modulated proton therapy for head and neck cancer.

Physics in medicine and biology
. Previous methods for robustness evaluation rely on dose calculation for a number of uncertainty scenarios, which either fails to provide statistical meaning when the number is too small (e.g., ∼8) or becomes unfeasible in daily clinical practice wh...

Deep learning-based prediction of the dose-volume histograms for volumetric modulated arc therapy of left-sided breast cancer.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: The advancements in artificial intelligence and computational power have made deep learning an attractive tool for radiotherapy treatment planning. Deep learning has the potential to significantly simplify the trial-and-error process invo...
