Xue Li and Dr. Alan B. McMillan just published a new article in the Practical Radiation Oncology journal entitled ‘Synthetic CT Generation from 0.35T MR Images for MR-only Radiation Therapy Planning Using Perceptual Loss Models’. This study aimed to synthesize CT images from 0.35T MR-Linac images, and treatment plans in the liver region, for MR-only …
MIMRTL team members just published a new article in the Journal of Digital Imaging entitled ‘Robustifying Deep Networks for Medical Image Segmentation’. This study investigated the robustness of UNets for brain tumor segmentation, in subjects with low- and high-grade gliomas, with respect to nearly unnoticeable adversarial perturbations, and suggest new methods to make these networks …
