Taylor & Francis Ltd AutoSegmentation for Radiation Oncology
Book SynopsisThis book provides a comprehensive introduction to current state-of-the-art auto-segmentation approaches used in radiation oncology for auto-delineation of organs-of-risk for thoracic radiation treatment planning. Containing the latest, cutting edge technologies and treatments, it explores deep-learning methods, multi-atlas-based methods, and model-based methods that are currently being developed for clinical radiation oncology applications. Each chapter focuses on a specific aspect of algorithm choices and discusses the impact of the different algorithm modules to the algorithm performance as well as the implementation issues for clinical use (including data curation challenges and auto-contour evaluations). This book is an ideal guide for radiation oncology centers looking to learn more about potential auto-segmentation tools for their clinic in addition to medical physicists commissioning auto-segmentation for clinical use. Features: Up-to-date Trade Review"This textbook provides a comprehensive overview of multi-atlas and deep learning approaches to auto-contouring. Furthermore, key questions on clinical implementation are considered. The first introductory chapter describes the main focus of this book being the Thoracic Auto-segmentation Challenge held as an event of the 2017 Annual Meeting of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM). Several challenge participants contributed a chapter to this book, addressing a specific strength of their segmentation algorithms. The lack of broad clinical introduction of auto-segmentation, which according to the editors is partly due to the lack of commissioning guidelines, made them dedicate the third part of the book to clinical implementation concerns. The book is written for everyone working in the field of auto-segmentation in radiotherapy. The experienced editors are from academia, clinical physics, and industry; their broad experience gives excellent perspective to this book…This book was useful toward improving my understanding of deep learning-based methods in medical image segmentation. To the best of my knowledge, this is the only textbook available on auto-segmentation dedicated to radiation oncology. Practical concerns and recommendations for implementation make this textbook a must-have for every radiation oncology department." — Charlotte Brouwer, M.Sc. in Medical Physics (December, 2021) Table of ContentsContents Foreword I..........................................................................................................................................ix Foreword II........................................................................................................................................xi Editors............................................................................................................................................. xiii Contributors......................................................................................................................................xv Chapter 1 Introduction to Auto-Segmentation in Radiation Oncology.........................................1 Jinzhong Yang, Gregory C.

This is the first book in over 40 years to address the topic of radiation protection dosimetry in intimate detail. This is a significant volume providing an overview of the field of radiation protection dosimetry, elaborating on the foundational concepts, historical evolution of regulation and guidance, scientific models, and measurements of exposure and uptake, and addressing application of these models in evaluating radiation exposure/uptake risk. It is part of the International Organization for Medical Physics book series in medical physics and biomedical engineering. The book provides a comprehensive summary of the current state-of-the art computational dosimetry techniques for radiation protection, with a clear, overarching goal of capturing the high-level knowledge used to generate fundamental radiation protection dosimetry quantities. The book addresses these concepts and regulatory applications considering both external and internal pathways. The methods presented are largely based on computational approaches and results from the latest International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) and the International Commission on Radiation Units (ICRU). As such, the book is appropriate for both a national and international audience including medical physicists, health physicists, radiation protection specialists, nuclear medicine practitioners, epidemiologists, and regulators. Other groups that would benefit from the information include students, academic physicists/dosimetrists, and laboratory researchers. The book contains the most up-to-date computational dosimetry models with each topic covered by internationally recognized experts in that field of study. After reviewing fundamental concepts and an engaging historical review of radiation protection guidance in the United States (with parallel coverage of the international recommendations), the book takes deep dives into several key topics: radiation detection and measurement, reference individuals (and associated phantoms) defined for external and internal radiation dosimetry, as well as biokinetic and dosimetric models. Additional key chapters include a comprehensive treatment of dose coefficients (and computational dosimetry approaches), cancer risk coefficients (considering both philosophy and application), and the interpretation of bioassay results to assess the intake of radionuclides. This book elucidates important topics in a much more practical manner than highly technical publications. In addition, having the detailed information in a single, combined, high-quality volume with primary references provided is a plus. The included sample calculations and detailed case studies are exceptionally useful inclusions. This is an important book that ensures key knowledge transfer from outgoing subject matter experts in radiation protection to incoming generations.” —Lawrence Dauer, Ph.D. (Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center) in Doody’s Core Titles Review 2022.
