Simulation‐free spine palliative radiotherapy enabled by AI‐adapted diagnostic CT

AI-pCT achieves sCT-level geometric and dosimetric fidelity without requiring a separate simulation scan, enabling a simulation-free planning workflow for spinal palliative RT. This approach has the potential to reduce treatment delays and improve access, particularly in resource-constrained environments.

Abstract

AI-pCT achieves sCT-level geometric and dosimetric fidelity without requiring a separate simulation scan, enabling a simulation-free planning workflow for spinal palliative RT. This approach has the potential to reduce treatment delays and improve access, particularly in resource-constrained environments.
