Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University Reports Findings in Head and Neck Cancer (Attention-aware 3D U-Net convolutional neural network for knowledge-based planning 3D dose distribution prediction of head-and-neck cancer)

摘要

By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Network Daily News - New research on Oncology - Head and Neck Cancer is the subject of a report. According to news reporting originating from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, “Deep learning-based knowledge-based planning (KBP) methods have been introduced for radiotherapy dose distribution prediction to reduce the planning time and maintain consistent high-quality plans. This paper presents a novel KBP model using an attention-gating mechanism and a three-dimensional (3D) U-Net for intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) 3D dose distribution prediction in head-and-neck cancer.”
