Optimal Needle Placement for Prostate Rotating-Shield Brachytherapy (RSBT) [PDF]
Purpose: To present an efficient NEEdle Position Optimization (NEEPO) algorithm for prostate rotating shield brachytherapy (RSBT). With RSBT, the increased flexibility beyond conventional high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR-BT) due to the partially shielded radiation source has been shown by Adams et al. in 2020 to enable improved urethra sparing (23.1%),

A Clinical and Finite Elements Study of Stress Urinary Incontinence in Women Using Fluid-Structure Interactions [PDF]
Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) or urine leakage from urethra occurs due to an increase in abdominal pressure resulting from stress like a cough or jumping height. SUI is more frequent among post-menopausal women. In the absence of bladder contraction, vesical pressure exceeds from urethral pressure leading to urine leakage. Despite a large number of

Uncertainty-Aware Temporal Self-Learning (UATS): Semi-Supervised Learning for Segmentation of Prostate Zones and Beyond [PDF]
Various convolutional neural network (CNN) based concepts have been introduced for the prostate's automatic segmentation and its coarse subdivision into transition zone (TZ) and peripheral zone (PZ). However, when targeting a fine-grained segmentation of TZ, PZ, distal prostatic urethra (DPU) and the anterior fibromuscular stroma (AFS), the task ...
