Modern intensity-modulated radiotherapy, aiming to deliver an accurate dose to the planning target volume while protecting the surrounding organs at risk, is regarded as the indispensable treatment ...
Dose conversion: A deep learning model predicts the Monte Carlo (MC) dose distribution from the pencil beam (PB) dose, for a prostate cancer case. (a) PB dose distribution; (b) converted dose ...
Streamlit-based calculator for human → mouse/rat dose translation in metabolic experiments. This tool was built to solve a recurring problem in a metabolism/endocrinology lab: Every time we designed ...
Evaluating IMRT and VMAT dose accuracy: practical examples of failure to detect systematic errors when applying a commonly used metric and action levels.
Purpose: To investigate the feasibility of proton therapy planning using stopping power ratio (SPR) maps directly generated from spectral CT raw data, and to perform a comparative evaluation of dose ...
How many of us give a “full” dose of chemotherapy to an obese patient—even in the curative setting? Dose calculation in the obese is a confusing but important puzzle for the oncologist and is becoming ...
Department of Radiation Oncology, General Hospital of Northern Theater Command, Shenyang, China Background: Accurate dose calculation algorithms are critical for optimizing radiotherapy outcomes. This ...
