Abstract:The purpose of this study was to investigate the precision of deep learning (DL)-based auto-reconstruction in localizing interstitial needles in post-operative cervical cancer brachytherapy (BT) using three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) images.Material and methods: A convolutional neural network (CNN) was developed and presented for automatic reconstruction of interstitial needles. Data of 70 post-operative cervical cancer patients who received CT-based BT were used to train and test this DL model.… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
