Image acquisition
|
Development of sCT scan from MRI images. |
No requirement of separate Planning CT
Better for image registration
|
26, 27 and 28. |
Tumour segmentation
|
Deep learning methods in contouring OAR and target tissue. |
Faster, more consistent contouring
Helpful in adaptive planning
|
31, 32, 33 and 34. |
Image registration
|
Deep learning approaches. |
Faster and more precise image registration than intensity-based methods
|
36, 37. |
Radiation planning
|
Voxel based dose prediction and dose monitoring. |
Faster and more precise planning process
|
38 and 39. |
Using historical patients’ data and present patient’s characteristics. |
Individualisation of dose constraints
|
40 41, 42 and 43. |
Radiation delivery
|
Using soft resort activator controlling flexion of neck. |
Decreased intra fraction motion. |
44 and 45. |
Using deep learning for estimating breathing pattern. |
Accurate tumour tracking with less errors of lag and predictive measures
|
48 and 49. |
