Clinical implementation of automated treatment planning for whole‐brain radiotherapy [PDF]

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, 2021
AbstractThe purpose of the study was to develop and clinically deploy an automated, deep learning‐based approach to treatment planning for whole‐brain radiotherapy (WBRT). We collected CT images and radiotherapy treatment plans to automate a beam aperture definition from 520 patients who received WBRT. These patients were split into training (n = 312),

Distribution of brain metastases: low-risk metastasis areas may be avoided when treating with whole-brain radiotherapy

Cancer Imaging, 2020
Objective Previous work has demonstrated that metastases are not uniformly distributed across the brain. This study aims to determine there are low-risk brain metastasis (BM) areas that may be avoided during whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) to reduce ...

Effect of brain radiotherapy strategies on prognosis of patients with EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma with brain metastasis

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2021
Purpose Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant lung cancers have a high risk of developing brain metastases (BM). Whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT), local radiotherapy, and WBRT + Boost are frequently used for treatment of BM.
