A Comparison of Non-Adaptive Versus Online Adaptive Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer Using FLOW-RT-- Fast, AI-Driven but Learning-Enabled, Online Adaptive Workflow for Radiotherapy

Authors: Theodore Higgins Arsenault, Kenneth W. Gregg, Beatriz Guevara, Lauren E Henke, Angela Jia, Rojano Kashani, Kyle O'Carroll, Alex T. Price, Adithya Reddy, Atefeh Rezaei, Daniel E Spratt, Runyon C. Woods

Affiliation: University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: To evaluate the effect of unedited AI-generated contours used for online adaptive radiotherapy (FLOW-ART) on the plan quality of prostate treatments as compared to non-adaptive (non-ART) proc...

AI-Based Registration-Free 3T T2-Weighted MRI Synthesis Using Truefisp MRI Acquired on a 0.35T MR-Linac System

Authors: Hilary P Bagshaw, Mark K Buyyounouski, Cynthia Fu-Yu Chuang, Yu Gao, Dimitre Hristov, Lianli Liu, Lawrie Skinner, Lei Xing

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology, Department of Radiation Oncology, Stanford University

Abstract Preview: Purpose:
MR-guided radiation therapy has introduced a significant leap in cancer treatment by allowing adaptive treatment. The low-field MR-guided system predominantly uses the TrueFISP sequence, w...

Contrast-Free Full Intracranial Vessel Geometry Estimation from MRI with Metric Learning-Based Inference

Authors: Zhaoyang Fan, Eric Nguyen, Dan Ruan, Jiayu Xiao

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology, University of California, Los Angeles, Department of Radiology, University of Southern California, University of Southern California

Abstract Preview: Purpose: MR vessel wall imaging (VWI) has been shown to be effective for evaluating intracranial atherosclerosis disease. However, VWI typically also requires an MR angiography (MRA) in the same imagi...

Developing Patient-Specific Functional Atlases with Inverse Distance Weighting of MR Images

Authors: Chibawanye I. Ene, Sherise D. Ferguson, Ping Hou, Vinodh A. Kumar, Ho-Ling Anthony Liu, Kyle R. Noll, Sujit S. Prabhu, Jian Ming Teo, Max Wintermark

Affiliation: Department of Neuro-Oncology, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Department of Neuroradiology, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Department of Neurosurgery, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Department of Imaging Physics, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose:
Functional brain atlases are used to guide clinical functional MRI (fMRI) analyses. Imprecise assertions may introduce the ecological fallacy as atlases are reflective of the constituent c...

Optimized Methodology for Accurate Half-Value Layer Measurement in Preclinical X-Ray Cabinet Systems

Authors: Paolo Pellicioli, Mohammad Rezaee, Ehsan Tajikmansoury, John W. Wong

Affiliation: Institute of Anatomy, University of Bern, Baltzerstrasse, Department of Radiation Oncology and Molecular Radiation Sciences, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Half-value layer (HVL) is a critical parameter for commissioning and quality assurance of preclinical x-ray irradiators. However, measuring HVL in cabinet systems presents challenges due to s...

Organ Dose Estimation from Successive CBCT Imaging for Patients Undergoing Radiation Therapy for Prostate Cancer

Authors: Panagiotis Iliopoulos, Marios Myronakis, Kyriaki Theodorou

Affiliation: Medical Physics Department, Medical School, University of Thessaly

Abstract Preview: Purpose: To estimate individualized absorbed dose at Organs at Risk (OARs) from kV Cone Beam CT (CBCT) imaging in the pelvic area, prior radiotherapy, and assess excess risk for secondary malignancies...

Rectal Spacer Injection on the Day of HDR Prostate Brachytherapy Enhances Dosimetry and Reduces Rectal Dose for Patients Receiving Combined Brachytherapy and EBRT.

Authors: Francis A Asamoah, David D. Campos, Jordan A Holmes, Ke Colin Huang, Omar Ishaq, Sook Kien Ng, Arpan Prabhu, Edwin Quashie, Yong Yue

Affiliation: Indiana University School of Medicine, Department of Radiation Oncology

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Evaluate a novel rectal spacer workflow with spacer injection during brachytherapy to streamline logistics, reduce hospital visits and costs, and compare the benefits of SpaceOAR Vue and Barr...

Use of Radiopaque Rectal Spacer for IGRT – a Preliminary Analysis of Alignment Accuracy and Interobserver Variability

Authors: Joseph A. Miccio, Nicholas J. Potter, Zain Siddiqui

Affiliation: Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Fiducial markers are the gold standard for prostate alignment during CT-based image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT). Radiopaque hydrogel rectal spacers reduce rectal toxicity by displacing the rec...

Weakly Supervised Spatial Implicit Neural Representation Learning for 3D MRI-Ultrasound Deformable Image Registration in HDR Prostate Brachytherapy
