Personalizing Prostate Cancer Education for Patients Using an EHR-Integrated LLM Agent

Yuexing Hao, Jason Holmes, Mark R. Waddle +10

Cancer patients often lack timely education and personalized support due to clinician workload. This quality improvement study develops and evaluates a Large Language Model (LLM) a…

Deep-Learning-based Fast and Accurate 3D CT Deformable Image Registration in Lung Cancer

Yuzhen Ding, Hongying Feng, Yunze Yang +9

Purpose: In some proton therapy facilities, patient alignment relies on two 2D orthogonal kV images, taken at fixed, oblique angles, as no 3D on-the-bed imaging is available. The v…

Diffusion Transformer-based Universal Dose Denoising for Pencil Beam Scanning Proton Therapy

Yuzhen Ding, Jason Holmes, Hongying Feng +13

Purpose: Intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) offers precise tumor coverage while sparing organs at risk (OARs) in head and neck (H&N) cancer. However, its sensitivity to anat…

A Multimodal Clinically Informed Coarse-to-Fine Framework for Longitudinal CT Registration in Proton Therapy

Caiwen Jiang, Yuzhen Ding, Mi Jia +14

Proton therapy offers superior organ-at-risk sparing but is highly sensitive to anatomical changes, making accurate deformable image registration (DIR) across longitudinal CT scans…

Robust Optimization for Spot Scanning Proton Therapy based on Dose-Linear Energy Transfer (LET) Volume Constraints

Jingyuan Chen, Yunze Yang, Hongying Feng +8

Purpose: Historically, spot scanning proton therapy (SSPT) treatment planning utilizes dose volume constraints and linear-energy-transfer (LET) volume constraints separately to bal…
