The Desmoid Dilemma: Challenges and Opportunities in Assessing Tumor Burden and Therapeutic Response.

Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.)
Desmoid tumors are rare, locally invasive soft-tissue tumors with unpredictable clinical behavior. Imaging plays a crucial role in their diagnosis, measurement of disease burden, and assessment of treatment response. However, desmoid tumors' unique i...

Smart contours: deep learning-driven internal gross tumor volume delineation in non-small cell lung cancer using 4D CT maximum and average intensity projections.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Delineating the internal gross tumor volume (IGTV) is crucial for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Deep learning (DL) enables the automation of this process; however, current studies focus mainly on multiple phases of ...

Clinical implications of deep learning based image analysis of whole radical prostatectomy specimens.

Scientific reports
Prostate cancer (PCa) diagnosis faces significant challenges due to its complex pathological characteristics and insufficient pathologist resources. While deep learning-based image analysis (DLIA) shows promise in enhancing diagnostic accuracy, its a...

Evaluating the prognostic significance of artificial intelligence-delineated gross tumor volume and prostate volume measurements for prostate radiotherapy.

Radiotherapy and oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Artificial intelligence (AI) may extract prognostic information from MRI for localized prostate cancer. We evaluate whether AI-derived prostate and gross tumor volume (GTV) are associated with toxicity and oncologic outcomes a...

A CT-based deep learning-driven tool for automatic liver tumor detection and delineation in patients with cancer.

Cell reports. Medicine
Liver tumors, whether primary or metastatic, significantly impact the outcomes of patients with cancer. Accurate identification and quantification are crucial for effective patient management, including precise diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy evalu...

Interstitial-guided automatic clinical tumor volume segmentation network for cervical cancer brachytherapy.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
Automatic clinical tumor volume (CTV) delineation is pivotal to improving outcomes for interstitial brachytherapy cervical cancer. However, the prominent differences in gray values due to the interstitial needles bring great challenges on deep learni...

Predicting the complexity of minimally invasive liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma using machine learning.

HPB : the official journal of the International Hepato Pancreato Biliary Association
BACKGROUND: Despite technical advancements, minimally invasive liver surgery (MILS) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains challenging. Nonetheless, effective tools to assess MILS complexity are still lacking. Machine learning (ML) models could i...

The development of an artificial intelligence auto-segmentation tool for 3D volumetric analysis of vestibular schwannomas.

Scientific reports
Linear and volumetric analysis are the typical methods to measure tumor size. 3D volumetric analysis has risen in popularity; however, this is very time and labor intensive limiting its implementation in clinical practice. This study aims to show tha...
