Deep learning (DL) has emerged as a promising solution to enhance image quality without increasing radiation exposure or scan time. However, existing self-supervised denoising methods, such as Noise2Noise (N2N), may introduce deviations from the clinical standard in bone scans. This study proposes an improved self-supervised denoising technique to minimize discrepancies between DL-based denoising and full scan images.<i>Approach.</i>Retrospective analysis of 351 whole-body bone scan data sets was conducted. In this study, we used N2N and Noise2FullCount (N2F) denoising models, along with an interpolated version of N2N (iN2N). Denoising networks were separately trained for each reduced scan time from 5 to 50%, and also trained for mixed training datasets, which include all shortened scans. We performed quantitative analysis and clinical evaluation by nuclear medicine experts.<i>Main results.</i>The denoising networks effectively generated images resembling full scans, with N2F revealing distinctive patterns for different scan times, N2N producing smooth textures with slight blurring, and iN2N closely mirroring full scan patterns. Quantitative analysis showed that denoising improved with longer input times and mixed count training outperformed fixed count training. Traditional denoising methods lagged behind DL-based denoising. N2N demonstrated limitations in long-scan images. Clinical evaluation favored N2N and iN2N in resolution, noise, blurriness, and findings, showcasing their potential for enhanced diagnostic performance in quarter-time scans.<i>Significance.</i>The improved self-supervised denoising technique presented in this study offers a viable solution to enhance bone scan image quality, minimizing deviations from clinical standards. The method's effectiveness was demonstrated quantitatively and clinically, showing promise for quarter-time scans without compromising diagnostic performance.

Several non-thermal FUS therapies rely on FUS-induced oscillations of microbubbles (MBs), a phenomenon referred to as cavitation. Cavitation monitoring in real time is essential to ensure both the efficacy and the safety of FUS therapies. This study aims to introduce a new magnetic resonance (MR) method for cavitation monitoring during FUS therapies.<i>Approach.</i>By finely synchronizing the FUS pulse with an accelerated turbo spin-echo MR sequence, the cavitation effect could be quantitatively estimated on the acquired images at 1-Hz refresh rate. The proposed method was assessed in vitro in a water bath. A series of FUS pulses were generated on a silicone tube filled with MBs at different acoustic pressures (0.07-2.07 MPa) and pulse durations (20-2000<i>μ</i>s). MR images and passive cavitation detection (PCD) signals were simultaneously acquired for each FUS pulse.<i>Main results.</i>Inertial cavitation was found to induce a quantitatively interpretable signal loss on the MR image. The transition from stable to inertial cavitation was identified on MR cavitation maps with high repeatability. These results were found to be in good agreement with PCD measurements in terms of pressure thresholds between stable and inertial cavitation. MR cavitation imaging was shown to be sensitive to short and even ultrashort FUS pulses, from 2 ms down to 20<i>μ</i>s. The presented theoretical model suggests that the signal loss in MR cavitation imaging relies on susceptibility changes related to the diameter of the oscillating MBs.<i>Significance.</i>The proposed MR cavitation imaging method can both locate and characterize cavitation activity.

MRI is the standard imaging modality for high-dose-rate brachytherapy of cervical cancer. Precise contouring of organs at risk (OARs) and high-risk clinical target volume (HR-CTV) from MRI is a crucial step for radiotherapy planning and treatment. However, conventional manual contouring has limitations in terms of accuracy as well as procedural time. To overcome these, we propose a deep learning approach to automatically segment OARs (bladder, rectum, and sigmoid colon) and HR-CTV from female pelvic MRI.<i>Approach</i>. In the proposed pipeline, a coarse multi-organ segmentation model first segments all structures, from which a region of interest is computed for each structure. Then, each organ is segmented using an organ-specific fine segmentation model separately trained for each organ. To account for variable sizes of HR-CTV, a size-adaptive multi-model approach was employed. For coarse and fine segmentations, we designed a dual convolution-transformer UNet (DCT-UNet) which uses dual-path encoder consisting of convolution and transformer blocks. To evaluate our model, OAR segmentations were compared to the clinical contours drawn by the attending radiation oncologist. For HR-CTV, four sets of contours (clinical + three additional sets) were obtained to produce a consensus ground truth as well as for inter/intra-observer variability analysis.<i>Main results</i>. DCT-UNet achieved dice similarity coefficient (mean ± SD) of 0.932 ± 0.032 (bladder), 0.786 ± 0.090 (rectum), 0.663 ± 0.180 (sigmoid colon), and 0.741 ± 0.076 (HR-CTV), outperforming other state-of-the-art models. Notably, the size-adaptive multi-model significantly improved HR-CTV segmentation compared to a single-model. Furthermore, significant inter/intra-observer variability was observed, and our model showed comparable performance to all observers. Computation time for the entire pipeline per subject was 12.59 ± 0.79 s, which is significantly shorter than the typical manual contouring time of >15 min.<i>Significance</i>.

In this work, the dosimetric performance of a novel optical fibre dosimeter for use in external beam radiotherapy is presented.<i>Approach</i>. The dosimeter was characterised for photon beam energies between 6-15 MV using a Varian TrueBeam Linac at dose rates between 100-2400 MU/min and assessed based on its repeatability, dose dependence, dose rate dependence, energy dependence and dose-per-pulse dependence.<i>Main Results</i>.

An over-response of 20%was found at the lowest investigated dose-per-pulse, and an under-response of 34%was found at the highest investigated dose-per-pulse.
