Virtual pretreatment patient‐specific quality assurance of volumetric modulated arc therapy using deep learning

Abstract

We developed a method to automatically generate the synthetic measured fluence and identify errors within them. The proposed dual training improved the PSQA prediction accuracy of both the GAN models, with c-GAN demonstrating superior performance over the cycle-GAN. Our results indicate that the c-GAN with dual training approach combined with error detection model, can accurately generate the synthetic measured fluence for VMAT PSQA and identify the errors. This approach has the potential to pave the way for virtual patient-specific QA of VMAT treatments.
