PURPOSE: With the increased use of focal radiation dose escalation for primary prostate cancer (PCa), accurate delineation of gross tumor volume (GTV) in prostate-specific membrane antigen PET (PSMA-PET) becomes crucial. Manual approaches are time-co...
BACKGROUND: Segmentation of the Gross Tumor Volume (GTV) is a crucial step in the brachytherapy (BT) treatment planning workflow. Currently, radiation oncologists segment the GTV manually, which is time-consuming. The time pressure is particularly cr...
BACKGROUND: In this study, we propose the deep learning model-based framework to automatically delineate nasopharynx gross tumor volume (GTVnx) in MRI images.

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to develop automatic breast tumor detection and classification including automatic tumor volume estimation using deep learning techniques based on computerized analysis of breast ultrasound images. When the skill levels of ...
Tumor burden assessment by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is central to the evaluation of treatment response for glioblastoma. This assessment is, however, complex to perform and associated with high variability due to the high heterogeneity and co...

BACKGROUND: Personalized therapy planning remains a significant challenge in advanced colorectal cancer care, despite extensive research on prognostic and predictive markers. A strong correlation of sarcopenia or overall body composition and survival...
BACKGROUND: Contouring of internal gross target volume (iGTV) is an essential part of treatment planning in radiotherapy to mitigate the impact of intra-fractional target motion. However, it is usually time-consuming and easily subjected to intra-obs...
