Sub-second photon dose prediction via transformer neural networks

Background: Fast dose calculation is critical for online and real-time adaptive therapy workflows. While modern physics-based dose algorithms must compromise accuracy to achieve low computation times, deep learning models can potentially perform dose prediction tasks with both high fidelity and speed. Purpose: We present a deep learning...

Millisecond speed deep learning based proton dose calculation with Monte Carlo accuracy

Objective. Next generation online and real-time adaptive radiotherapy workflows require precise particle transport simulations in sub-second times, which is unfeasible with current analytical pencil beam algorithms (PBA) or Monte Carlo (MC) methods. We present a deep learning based millisecond speed dose calculation algorithm (DoTA)...
