Artificial intelligence for image-guided prostate brachytherapy procedures
2020
Radiotherapy procedures aim at exposing cancer cells to ionizing radiation. Permanently implanting radioactive sources near to the cancer cells is a typical technique to cure early-stage prostate cancer. It involves image acquisition of the patient, delineating the target volumes and organs at risk on different medical images, treatment planning, image-guided radioactive seed delivery, and post-implant evaluation. Artificial intelligence-based medical image analysis can benefit radiotherapy procedures. It can help to facilitate and improve the efficiency of the procedures by automatically segmenting target organs and extrapolating clinically relevant information. However, manual delineation…
