Clinical Evaluation of Deep Learning and Atlas-Based Auto-Contouring of Bladder and Rectum for Prostate Radiation Therapy.

Practical radiation oncology
PURPOSE: Auto-contouring may reduce workload, interobserver variation, and time associated with manual contouring of organs at risk. Manual contouring remains the standard due in part to uncertainty around the time and workload savings after accounti...

Label-driven magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) registration using weakly supervised learning for MRI-guided prostate radiotherapy.

Physics in medicine and biology
Registration and fusion of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) of the prostate can provide guidance for prostate brachytherapy. However, accurate registration remains a challenging task due to the lack of ground truth r...

Automatic segmentation of pelvic organs-at-risk using a fusion network model based on limited training samples.

Acta oncologica (Stockholm, Sweden)
Efficient and accurate methods are needed to automatically segmenting organs-at-risk (OAR) to accelerate the radiotherapy workflow and decrease the treatment wait time. We developed and evaluated the use of a fused model Dense V-Network for its abil...

RapidBrachyDL: Rapid Radiation Dose Calculations in Brachytherapy Via Deep Learning.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Detailed and accurate absorbed dose calculations from radiation interactions with the human body can be obtained with the Monte Carlo (MC) method. However, the MC method can be slow for use in the time-sensitive clinical workflow. The aim of...

Automated laparoscopic colorectal surgery workflow recognition using artificial intelligence: Experimental research.

International journal of surgery (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Identifying laparoscopic surgical videos using artificial intelligence (AI) facilitates the automation of several currently time-consuming manual processes, including video analysis, indexing, and video-based skill assessment. This study ...

Deep learning-based classification of rectal fecal retention and analysis of fecal properties using ultrasound images in older adult patients.

Japan journal of nursing science : JJNS
AIM: The present study aimed to analyze the use of machine learning in ultrasound (US)-based fecal retention assessment.

Conventional vs machine learning-based treatment planning in prostate brachytherapy: Results of a Phase I randomized controlled trial.

Brachytherapy
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the noninferiority of Day 30 dosimetry between a machine learning-based treatment planning system for prostate low-dose-rate (LDR) brachytherapy and the conventional, manual planning technique. As a ...

Robotic multivisceral resection for a locally advanced rectosigmoid cancer - a video vignette.

Colorectal disease : the official journal of the Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland

Comparison of statistical machine learning models for rectal protocol compliance in prostate external beam radiation therapy.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Limiting the dose to the rectum can be one of the most challenging aspects of creating a dosimetric external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) plan for prostate cancer treatment. Rectal sparing devices such as hydrogel spacers offer the prospect...
