Quantitative phantom‐based comparison of commercial CT metal artifact reduction algorithms

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Background Metal artifacts in computed tomography (CT) significantly compromise image quality and CT number (CTN) accuracy, which may influence downstream applications such as radiation therapy workflows. Although commercial metal artifact reduction (MAR) algorithms are widely used, their performance varies across vendors and clinical ...

Transformer‐Based Deep Learning Model for Predicting Recurrence in High‐Grade Glioma

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction The first year after treatment for high‐grade glioma (HGG) is recognized as the peak interval for recurrence. Accurate prediction of recurrence during this period is critical for timely management and early intervention. This study aimed to develop a fusion model that integrates MRI‐derived features with clinical variables ...

Hypofractionated Spot Scanning Proton Therapy for Head and Neck Mucosal Melanoma: A Retrospective Analysis With Quality‐of‐Life Outcome

Head &Neck, Volume 48, Issue 5, Page 1208-1217, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate clinical outcomes and quality of life (QOL) following hypofractionated spot‐scanning proton therapy (SSPT) for head and neck malignant mucosal melanoma (HNMM). Methods This retrospective study included 39 patients treated with SSPT (60–64 Gy[RBE] in 15–16 fractions) between 2013 and 2023.
