Tumor heterogeneity is a well-known prognostic factor in head and neck squamous cell
carcinoma (HNSCC). A major limitation of tissue-and blood-derived tumor markers is the …

Since the introduction of MRI as a sustainable diagnostic modality, global accessibility to its
services has revealed a wide discrepancy between populations—leaving most of the …

Simple Summary Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has several advantages over
computerized tomography (CT) in the treatment planning of central nervous system (CNS) …

Purpose To evaluate the effect of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging (MRI) geometric
distortions on head and neck radiation therapy treatment planning (RTP) for an MRI-only …

Purpose The accuracy and precision of patient positioning is crucial in radiotherapy;
however, there are no publications available using synthetic computed tomography (sCT) …

Background Gadolinium-based contrast is often used when acquiring MR images for
radiation therapy planning for better target delineation. In some situations, patients may still …

The increasing number of patients with metal implants raises concerns about metal-induced
geometric distortions (MD) in MR-guided treatments. This study proposes a method for three …

Background MRI-guided radiotherapy planning (MRIgRT) may be superior to CT-guided
planning in some instances owing to its improved soft tissue contrast. However, MR images …

Background and purpose Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) allows for the interrogation of
tissue cellularity, which is a surrogate for cellular proliferation. Previous attempts to …

Magnetic resonance imaging provides a sea of quantitative and semi-quantitative data.
While radiation oncologists already navigate a pool of clinical (semantic) and imaging data …
