OBJECTIVE: Obtaining automated, objective 3-dimensional (3D) models of the Eustachian tube (ET) and the internal carotid artery (ICA) from computed tomography (CT) scans could provide useful navigational and diagnostic information for ET pathologies ...
Since most Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) typically arises as a consequence of long-term liver damage, the hepatic molecular characteristics are closely related to the occurrence of HCC. Gaining comprehensive information about the location, morpholog...
Deep convolutional neural networks have made significant strides in the field of medical image segmentation. Although existing convolutional structures enhance performance by leveraging local image information, they often lose the interdependence inf...
Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are the benchmark for accurate radiotherapy dose calculations, notably in patient-specific high dose rate brachytherapy (HDR BT), in cases where considering tissue heterogeneities is critical. However, the lengthy computa...
Bladder cancer has recently seen an alarming increase in global diagnoses, ascending as a predominant cause of cancer-related mortalities. Given this pressing scenario, there is a burgeoning need to identify effective biomarkers for both the diagnosi...

PURPOSE: To create and evaluate a three-dimensional (3D) Prompt-nnUnet module that utilizes the prompts-based model combined with 3D nnUnet for producing the rapid and consistent autosegmentation of high-risk clinical target volume (HR CTV) and organ...
Accurate multi-organ segmentation in 3D CT images is imperative for enhancing computer-aided diagnosis and radiotherapy planning. However, current deep learning-based methods for 3D multi-organ segmentation face challenges such as the need for labor-...
BACKGROUND: Human papillomavirus (HPV) status plays a major role in predicting oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) survival. This study assesses the accuracy of a fully automated 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) in predicting HPV statu...
