Generating Pareto optimal dose distributions for radiation therapy treatment planning [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Radiotherapy treatment planning currently requires many trail-and-error iterations between the planner and treatment planning system, as well as between the planner and physician for discussion/consultation. The physician's preferences for a particular patient cannot be easily quantified and precisely conveyed to the planner. In this study we present a

Femoral ROIs and Entropy for Texture-based Detection of Osteoarthritis from High-Resolution Knee Radiographs [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 The relationship between knee osteoarthritis progression and changes in tibial bone structure has long been recognized and various texture descriptors have been proposed to detect early osteoarthritis (OA) from radiographs. This work aims to investigate (1) femoral textures as an OA indicator and (2) the potential of entropy as a computationally ...
