Purpose: Personalized treatment schemes are being systematically applied to ensure best treatment outcome in oncologic patients. This is true also for personalized dosimetry in transarterial radioembolization (TARE) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. Precise and detailed volumetric and functional data derived from radiological and nuclear imaging methods are essential for personalized dosimetry.

Objective: To investigate significant differences in selected radiomic parameters when classifying periapical lesions based on volumetric size, cortical expansion, erosion, and shape using Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT).
Methods: A retrospective analytical and comparative study was conducted on 100 small field of view (FOV) 50×50 mm CBCT scans collected between the years 2018 and 2023. The study involved qualitative classification of periapical lesions, followed by segmentation and extraction of radiomic parameters.

There is a paucity of studies reporting the use of automated contouring function on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images acquired during image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) with offline adaptive radiotherapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This case report discusses the use of an automated contouring function on CBCT images acquired during IGRT to quantify the dose distribution variations associated with tumor shrinkage in a patient with large NSCLC. A 72-year-old woman with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the lung (T4N1M0; tumor diameter: 14 cm) underwent chemoradiotherapy.

Background And Purpose: Radiotherapy (RT) treatment planning is based on a planning computed tomography scan (pCT), while the decision to treat is often already established on a diagnostic CT scan (dCT). The objective of this study was to evaluate the usage of dCT for palliative radiation planning of soft tissue tumoral masses (STTMs), removing the need for a pCT scan and associated attendances.
Materials And Methods: RT planning was performed retrospectively to 38 STTMs of 7 anatomical sites using volumetric modulated arc therapy techniques in dCT and transferred to pCT.

Many tasks performed in image-guided procedures can be cast as pose estimation problems, where specific projections are chosen to reach a target in 3D space. In this study, we construct a framework for fluoroscopic pose estimation and compare alternative loss functions and volumetric scene representations. We first develop a differentiable projection (DiffProj) algorithm for the efficient computation of Digitally Reconstructed Radiographs (DRRs) from either Cone-Beam Computerized Tomography (CBCT) or neural scene representations.
