Nested CNN architecture for three-dimensional dose distribution prediction in tomotherapy for prostate cancer.

Strahlentherapie und Onkologie : Organ der Deutschen Rontgengesellschaft ... [et al]
BACKGROUND: The hypothesis of changing network layers to increase the accuracy of dose distribution prediction, instead of expanding their dimensions, which requires complex calculations, has been considered in our study.

Evaluation of deep learning based dose prediction in head and neck cancer patients using two different types of input contours.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: This study evaluates deep learning (DL) based dose prediction methods in head and neck cancer (HNC) patients using two types of input contours.

Automated confidence estimation in deep learning auto-segmentation for brain organs at risk on MRI for radiotherapy.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
PURPOSE: We have built a novel AI-driven QA method called AutoConfidence (ACo), to estimate segmentation confidence on a per-voxel basis without gold standard segmentations, enabling robust, efficient review of automated segmentation (AS). We have de...

Clinical implementation of deep learning robust IMPT planning in oropharyngeal cancer patients: A blinded clinical study.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the plan quality of our deep learning-based automated treatment planning method for robustly optimized intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) plans in patients with oropharyngeal carcinoma (OPC)...

Artificial intelligence-based motion tracking in cancer radiotherapy: A review.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
Radiotherapy aims to deliver a prescribed dose to the tumor while sparing neighboring organs at risk (OARs). Increasingly complex treatment techniques such as volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT), stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), stereotactic body...

Deep learning for patient-specific quality assurance of volumetric modulated arc therapy: Prediction accuracy and cost-sensitive classification performance.

Physica medica : PM : an international journal devoted to the applications of physics to medicine and biology : official journal of the Italian Association of Biomedical Physics (AIFB)
PURPOSE: To evaluate a deep learning model's performance in predicting and classifying patient-specific quality assurance (PSQA) results for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT), aiming to streamline PSQA workflows and reduce the onsite measuremen...

Machine learning and deep learning prediction of patient specific quality assurance in breast IMRT radiotherapy plans using Halcyon specific complexity indices.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
INTRODUCTION: New radiotherapy machines such as Halcyon are capable of delivering dose-rate of 600 monitor-units per minute, allowing large numbers of patients treated per day. However, patient-specific quality assurance (QA) is still required, which...

Deep learning based clinical target volumes contouring for prostate cancer: Easy and efficient application.

Journal of applied clinical medical physics
BACKGROUND: Radiotherapy has been crucial in prostate cancer treatment. However, manual segmentation is labor intensive and highly variable among radiation oncologists. In this study, a deep learning based automated contouring model is constructed fo...

Deep learning architecture with shunted transformer and 3D deformable convolution for voxel-level dose prediction of head and neck tumors.

Physical and engineering sciences in medicine
Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) has been widely used in treating head and neck tumors. However, due to the complex anatomical structures in the head and neck region, it is challenging for the plan optimizer to rapidly generate clinically...
