Intracranial stereotactic radiosurgery with an adapted linear accelerator vs. robotic radiosurgery: Comparison of dosimetric treatment plan quality.

Strahlentherapie und Onkologie : Organ der Deutschen Rontgengesellschaft ... [et al]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Stereotactic radiosurgery with an adapted linear accelerator (linac-SRS) is an established therapy option for brain metastases, benign brain tumors, and arteriovenous malformations. We intended to investigate whether the dosim...

Comparison of 3D and 4D Monte Carlo optimization in robotic tracking stereotactic body radiotherapy of lung cancer.

Strahlentherapie und Onkologie : Organ der Deutschen Rontgengesellschaft ... [et al]
PURPOSE: To investigate the adequacy of three-dimensional (3D) Monte Carlo (MC) optimization (3DMCO) and the potential of four-dimensional (4D) dose renormalization (4DMCrenorm) and optimization (4DMCO) for CyberKnife (Accuray Inc., Sunnyvale, CA) ra...

Improvement of deep learning-based dose conversion accuracy to a Monte Carlo algorithm in proton beam therapy for head and neck cancers.

Journal of radiation research
This study is aimed to clarify the effectiveness of the image-rotation technique and zooming augmentation to improve the accuracy of the deep learning (DL)-based dose conversion from pencil beam (PB) to Monte Carlo (MC) in proton beam therapy (PBT). ...

Deep learning-powered radiotherapy dose prediction: clinical insights from 622 patients across multiple sites tumor at a single institution.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
PURPOSE: Accurate pre-treatment dose prediction is essential for efficient radiotherapy planning. Although deep learning models have advanced automated dose distribution, comprehensive multi-tumor analyses remain scarce. This study assesses deep lear...

A self-supervised multimodal deep learning approach to differentiate post-radiotherapy progression from pseudoprogression in glioblastoma.

Scientific reports
Accurate differentiation of pseudoprogression (PsP) from True Progression (TP) following radiotherapy (RT) in glioblastoma patients is crucial for optimal treatment planning. However, this task remains challenging due to the overlapping imaging chara...

Feasibility study of automatic radiotherapy treatment planning for cervical cancer using a large language model.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Radiotherapy treatment planning traditionally involves complex and time-consuming processes, often relying on trial-and-error methods. The emergence of artificial intelligence, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs), surpassing human c...

Leveraging Artificial Intelligence and Radiomics for Improved Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Prognostication.

Cancer medicine
INTRODUCTION: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) typically presents as advanced disease due to the lack of significant symptoms in the early stages. Accurate prognostication is therefore challenging as current methods based on anatomical staging often la...

An audit of the impact of the introduction of a commercial artificial intelligence-driven auto-contouring tool into a radiotherapy department.

The British journal of radiology
OBJECTIVES: To audit prospectively the accuracy, time saving, and utility of a commercial artificial intelligence auto-contouring tool (AIAC). To assess the reallocation of time released by AIAC.

A prospectively deployed deep learning-enabled automated quality assurance tool for oncological palliative spine radiation therapy.

The Lancet. Digital health
BACKGROUND: Palliative spine radiation therapy is prone to treatment at the wrong anatomic level. We developed a fully automated deep learning-based spine-targeting quality assurance system (DL-SpiQA) for detecting treatment at the wrong anatomic lev...

Potential of E-Learning Interventions and Artificial Intelligence-Assisted Contouring Skills in Radiotherapy: The ELAISA Study.

JCO global oncology
PURPOSE: Most research on artificial intelligence-based auto-contouring as template (AI-assisted contouring) for organs-at-risk (OARs) stem from high-income countries. The effect and safety are, however, likely to depend on local factors. This study ...
