A probabilistic deep learning model of inter-fraction anatomical variations in radiotherapy

Objective. In radiotherapy, the internal movement of organs between treatment sessions causes errors in the final radiation dose delivery. To assess the need for adaptation, motion models can be used to simulate dominant motion patterns and assess anatomical robustness before delivery. Traditionally, such models are based on principal...

Learning image representations for content-based image retrieval of radiotherapy treatment plans

Objective. In this work, we propose a content-based image retrieval (CBIR) method for retrieving dose distributions of previously planned patients based on anatomical similarity. Retrieved dose distributions from this method can be incorporated into automated treatment planning workflows in order to streamline the iterative planning process....
