Journal ArticleDOI

Computed tomography-based attenuation correction in neurological positron emission tomography: evaluation of the effect of the X-ray tube voltage on quantitative analysis.

TL;DR: The use of a single calibration curve acquired under standard imaging conditions does not affect, to a visible or measurable extent, neurological PET images reconstructed using CTAC when CT images are acquired in different conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fully Automated Gross Tumor Volume Delineation From PET in Head and Neck Cancer Using Deep Learning Algorithms.

TL;DR: In this paper, three state-of-the-art deep learning algorithms combined with 8 different loss functions for PET image segmentation were evaluated on an external validation set of head and neck cancer (HNC) patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluating the Application of Tissue-Specific Dose Kernels Instead of Water Dose Kernels in Internal Dosimetry: A Monte Carlo Study.

TL;DR: A novel technique is proposed considering tissue-specific dose kernels in the dose calculation algorithm that potentially enables patient-specific dosimetry and improves estimation of the average absorbed dose of 90Y in a tumor located in lung, bone, and soft tissue interface by 6.98% compared with the conventional methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of scattered radiation in a volumetric 64-slice CT scanner using three experimental techniques

TL;DR: Although the three compared methods present a reasonable accuracy for calculation of the scattered profile in the region corresponding to the object, the collimator shadow method is by far the most accurate empirical technique.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of CT dose to the fetus and pregnant female patient using patient-specific computational models

TL;DR: The methodology for construction of personalised computational models can be exploited to estimate the patient-specific radiation dose from CT imaging procedures and the dosimetric data can be used for assessment of the radiation risks to pregnant patients and the foetus from various CT scanning protocols, thus guiding the decision-making process.
