Japanese postprocessing firm TeraRecon demonstrated work-in-progress treatment planning software at the ASTRO meeting Nov. 4 to 8. The software, which runs on TeraRecon’s Aquarius workstation, supports treatment planning, dose calculation, and dose optimization. It features real-time 3-D volume rendering, using the company’s VolumePro technology, as well as such advanced features as interactive image fusion, auto contouring, beam and block entry, dose calculation, and segmented image reconstruction with isodose display. The system can also digitally reconstruct radiographs and generate dose-volume histograms for 3-D structures. An intravascular brachytherapy module provides extended radial and anisotropic dose functions.
MRI-Based AI Radiomics Model Offers 'Robust' Prediction of Perineural Invasion in Prostate Cancer
July 26th 2024A model that combines MRI-based deep learning radiomics and clinical factors demonstrated an 84.8 percent ROC AUC and a 92.6 percent precision-recall AUC for predicting perineural invasion in prostate cancer cases.
Breast MRI Study Examines Common Factors with False Negatives and False Positives
July 24th 2024The absence of ipsilateral breast hypervascularity is three times more likely to be associated with false-negative findings on breast MRI and non-mass enhancement lesions have a 4.5-fold likelihood of being linked to false-positive results, according to new research.
Can Polyenergetic Reconstruction Help Resolve Streak Artifacts in Photon Counting CT?
July 22nd 2024New research looking at photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) demonstrated significantly reduced variation and tracheal air density attenuation with polyenergetic reconstruction in contrast to monoenergetic reconstruction on chest CT.
