Line matching in widely separated views is challenging because of large perspective distortion and violation of the planarity assumption in local regions. We introduce a novel method of wide-baseline image matching based on the coplanar line intersections for poorly textured and/or nonplanar structured scenes. The local areas of the coplanar line pairs are normalized into canonical frames by rectifying the coplanar line pairs to be orthogonal. Then, the 3D interpretation of the intersection context of the coplanar line pairs helps to match the nonplanar local regions. Furthermore, for calibrated stereo cameras, we propose a matching criterion based on 3D planar homography to improve the matching accuracy while reconstructing most likely physically existing planar patches. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method for real-world scenes.

Article Synopsis
  • - A new crystalline compound has been discovered, consisting of a ferric acetate unit and formed from hydrated iron(III) nitrate and acetic anhydride, with the chemical notation [Fe(CHO)O(CHO)].
  • - The structure features individual [FeO(OAc)] units linked by bridging acetate ions to create zigzag chains, with unique coordination of a carbonyl group from acetic acid at one of the iron centers.
  • - This is the first time an acetic acid molecule has been reported coordinating with an iron ion, showing a weaker bond that contrasts with a similar manganese compound affected by the Jahn-Teller effect.

Article Synopsis
  • This study explored the effectiveness and safety of three advanced stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) techniques for treating pancreatic cancer: CyberKnife (CK), Tomography Radixact (TOMO), and Halcyon volume rotation intensity modulation therapy (VMAT).
  • Sixteen patients were analyzed using different SBRT plans, with a focus on optimization methods and median radiation doses.
  • Results indicated that CK with multi-leaf collimator (CK-MLC) provided the best protection for surrounding organs while effectively targeting the tumor, demonstrating its superior dosimetric properties compared to the other methods.

Introduction Esophageal cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with chemoradiotherapy being a cornerstone of its treatment. Ensuring precise radiation delivery is critical, as it minimizes exposure to surrounding healthy tissues, particularly vital structures like the heart and the left anterior descending artery (LAD). Volumetric arc therapy (VMAT) and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) are two advanced radiotherapy techniques that offer enhanced dose conformity and reduced toxicity.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of a surface-guided radiotherapy (SGRT) system for setup and intra-fraction motion control in frameless non-coplanar stereotactic radiosurgery (fSRS) using actual patient data immobilized with two different types of open-faced masks and employing a novel SGRT systems settings.

Methods And Materials: Forty-four SRS patients were immobilized with two types of open-faced masks. Sixty lesions were treated, involving the analysis of 68 cone-beam scans (CBCT), 157 megavoltage (MV) images, and 521 SGRT monitoring sessions.

Electronic address:

In non-coplanar radiotherapy, DR is commonly used for image guiding which needs to fuse intraoperative DR with preoperative CT. But this fusion task performs poorly, suffering from unaligned and dimensional differences between DR and CT. CT reconstruction estimated from DR could facilitate this challenge.
