This study aims to investigate the feasibility of a single general model to synthesize CT images across body sites, thorax, abdomen, and pelvis, to support treatment planning for MRI-only radiotherapy. A total of 157 patients who received MRI-guided ...
BACKGROUND: Patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) typically receive surgery as their primary form of treatment. However, studies have shown that a high proportion of these patients will experience a recurrence after their resec...
In digital radiography, image quality is synergistically affected by anatomy-specific examinations, exposure factors, body parameters, detector types, and vendors/systems. However, estimating appropriate exposure factors before radiography with optim...

Despite the similar global structures in Chest X-ray (CXR) images, the same anatomy exhibits varying appearances across images, including differences in local textures, shapes, colors, etc. Learning consistent representations for anatomical semantics...
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to assess and compare two state-of-the-art deep learning approaches for segmenting four thoracic organs at riskĀ (OAR)-the esophagus, trachea, heart, and aorta-in CT images in the context of radiotherapy planning.

BACKGROUND: Recent studies in the field of lung cancer have emphasized the important role of body composition, particularly fatty tissue, as a prognostic factor. However, there is still a lack of practice in combining fatty tissue to discriminate ben...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI) studies of the body are routinely acquired in clinical practice. However, a standardized naming convention for MRI protocols and series does not exist currently. Conflicts in the series descripti...
Deep learning approaches for multi-label Chest X-ray (CXR) images classification usually require large-scale datasets. However, acquiring such datasets with full annotations is costly, time-consuming, and prone to noisy labels. Therefore, we introduc...
BACKGROUND: Recent advancements in anomaly detection have paved the way for novel radiological reading assistance tools that support the identification of findings, aimed at saving time. The clinical adoption of such applications requires a low rate ...
