A preliminary study of using a deep convolution neural network to generate synthesized CT images based on CBCT for adaptive radiotherapy of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Conclusion: The DCNN model can generate high-quality synthesized CT images from CBCT images and be used for accurate dose calculations for NPC patients. This finding has great significance for the clinical application of adaptive radiotherapy for NPC.&#13. PMID: 31170699 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
