Generation of Virtual Non-Contrast CT From Intravenous Enhanced CT in Radiotherapy Using Convolutional Neural Networks

Objective: To generate virtual non-contrast (VNC) computed tomography (CT) from intravenous enhanced CT through convolutional neural networks (CNN) and compare calculated dose among enhanced CT, VNC, and real non-contrast scanning.Method: 50 patients who accepted non-contrast and enhanced CT scannin...
