Efficient Online 4D Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(IEEE COMPUTER SOC, 2021-01-01)
The impact of 2D cine MR imaging parameters on automated tumor and organ localization for MR-guided real-time adaptive radiotherapy.
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2018-11-22)
2D cine MR imaging may be utilized to monitor rapidly moving tumors and organs-at-risk for real-time adaptive radiotherapy. This study systematically investigates the impact of geometric imaging parameters on the ability ...
Principal component analysis fosr fast and model-free denoising of multi b-value diffusion-weighted MR images.
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2019-04-09)
Despite the utility of tumour characterisation using quantitative parameter maps from multi-b-value diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI), clinicians often prefer the use of the image with highest diffusion-weighting (b-value), for ...
Synthetic 4D-CT of the thorax for treatment plan adaptation on MR-guided radiotherapy systems.
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2019-05-23)
MR-guided radiotherapy treatment planning utilises the high soft-tissue contrast of MRI to reduce uncertainty in delineation of the target and organs at risk. Replacing 4D-CT with MRI-derived synthetic 4D-CT would support ...
MRI commissioning of 1.5T MR-linac systems - a multi-institutional study.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2019-03-01)
BACKGROUND: Magnetic Resonance linear accelerator (MR-linac) systems represent a new type of technology that allows for online MR-guidance for high precision radiotherapy (RT). Currently, the first MR-linac installations ...
Realizing the potential of magnetic resonance image guided radiotherapy in gynaecological and rectal cancer.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2019-05-14)
CT-based radiotherapy workflow is limited by poor soft tissue definition in the pelvis and reliance on rigid registration methods. Current image-guided radiotherapy and adaptive radiotherapy models therefore have limited ...
Delayed contrast dynamics as marker of regional impairment in pulmonary fibrosis using 5D MRI - a pilot study.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2020-09-01)
OBJECTIVE: To analyse delayed contrast dynamics of fibrotic lesions in interstitial lung disease (ILD) using five dimensional (5D) MRI and to correlate contrast dynamics with disease severity. METHODS: 20 patients (mean ...
Automatic reconstruction of the delivered dose of the day using MR-linac treatment log files and online MR imaging.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2020-01-10)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Anatomical changes during external beam radiotherapy prevent the accurate delivery of the intended dose distribution. Resolving the delivered dose, which is currently unknown, is crucial to link ...
An optimized b-value distribution for triexponential intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) in the liver.
(WILEY, 2021-04-01)
PURPOSE: To find an optimized b-value distribution for reproducible triexponential intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) exams in the liver. METHODS: A numeric optimization of b-value distributions was performed using the ...
Audit feasibility for geometric distortion in magnetic resonance imaging for radiotherapy.
(ELSEVIER, 2020-07-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is increasingly being used in radiotherapy (RT). However, geometric distortions are a known challenge of using MRI in RT. The aim of this study was to demonstrate ...
