Modern radiotherapy treatment planning is a complex and time-consuming process that requires the skills of experienced users to obtain quality plans. Since the early 2000s, the automation of this planning process has become an important research topi...
We have previously proposed an intelligent automatic treatment planning (IATP) framework that builds a virtual treatment planner network (VTPN) to operate a treatment planning system (TPS) to generate high-quality radiation therapy (RT) treatment pla...
PURPOSE: Radiation therapy treatment planning is a time-consuming and iterative manual process. Consequently, plan quality varies greatly between and within institutions. Artificial intelligence shows great promise in improving plan quality and reduc...
PURPOSE: To present the technical details of the runner-up model in the open knowledge-based planning (OpenKBP) challenge for the dose-volume histogram (DVH) stream. The model was designed to ensure simple and reproducible training, without the neces...
This study aims to develop a deep learning-based strategy for treatment plan check and verification of high-dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy. A deep neural network was trained to verify the dwell positions and times for a given input brachytherapy isodo...
PURPOSE: We recently described the validation of deep learning-based auto-segmented contour (DC) models for organs at risk (OAR) and clinical target volumes (CTV). In this study, we evaluate the performance of implemented DC models in the clinical ra...
Adaptive-radiation-therapy (ART) is applied to account for anatomical variations observed over the treatment course. Daily or weekly cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is commonly used in clinic for patient positioning, but CBCT's inaccuracy in Hou...
PURPOSE: Accurately delineating clinical target volumes (CTV) is essential for completing radiotherapy plans but is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to inter-observer variation. Automating CTV delineation has the benefits of both speeding u...

Over the last years, technological innovation in Radiotherapy (RT) led to the introduction of Magnetic Resonance-guided RT (MRgRT) systems. Due to the higher soft tissue contrast compared to on-board CT-based systems, MRgRT is expected to significant...
