“…Lower toxicities and doses to organs-at-risk (OARs) occurred in the SDR-QD and BID cohorts. Further, the cardiac dose dosimetric parameter Vheart40 was negatively associated with survival (r = −0.35, P = 0.007). …”

“…Finally, to combine the advantages of different normalization preprocessing methods, we obtained sCT_Blur by cropping, stitching, and smoothing (OpenCV's cv2.medianBlur, kernel size 5) each group of sCTs and evaluated its image quality and accuracy of OARs. RESULTS: Different normalization preprocesses made sCT more accurate in different tissues. …”

“…A variety of plan quality metrics were analyzed to evaluate dose distributions to the target, doses to organs at risk (OARs), and integral dose to the patient. A MATLAB script was developed to stitch the calculated and measured fluence maps in order to perform patient-specific QA for the composite fluence. …”

“…There was no significant difference [Formula: see text] observed for the defined endpoint doses in organs at risk (OARs). In conclusion, both mixed DAO and nonflat DAO plans can achieve similar plan quality as the clinically approved FP plan, measured by plan homogeneity and endpoint doses to the ORAs. …”

“…PURPOSE: Current deep learning methods for dose prediction require manual delineations of planning target volume (PTV) and organs at risk (OARs) besides the original CT images. Perceiving the time cost of manual contour delineation, we expect to explore the feasibility of accelerating the radiotherapy planning by leveraging only the CT images to produce high-quality dose distribution maps while generating the contour information automatically. …”
