Automation of Radiation Treatment Planning for Rectal Cancer [PDF]
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics 2022, 2022 To develop an automated workflow for rectal cancer three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy treatment planning that combines deep-learning(DL) aperture predictions and forward-planning algorithms. We designed an algorithm to automate the clinical workflow for planning with field-in-field. DL models were trained, validated, and tested on 555 patients to

Effect of In-vivo Heat Challenge on Physiological Parameters and Function of Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells in Immune Phenotyped Dairy Cattle [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The frequency of heat waves are increasing due to climate change, which leads to an increase in the occurrence of heat stress in dairy cattle. Previous studies have shown that dairy cattle identified as high immune responders have a reduced incidence of disease and improved vaccine response compared to average and low responders.
