    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Radiotherapy
    • Machine Learning

    Background:

    • Image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) demands precise prostate localization.
    • Low tissue contrast and anatomical variations pose significant challenges.
    • Existing methods often overlook valuable patient-specific data from treatment CT scans.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel learning framework, incremental learning with selective memory (ILSM).
    • To effectively learn patient-specific appearance characteristics from treatment CT images.
    • To enhance the accuracy and speed of prostate localization in IGRT.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed ILSM, a framework that personalizes a population-based model using patient-specific CT images.
    • Employed a two-step personalization process: backward pruning of obsolete knowledge and forward learning of new characteristics.

  • Integrated patient-specific data with general population statistics for improved model performance.
  • Main Results:

    • ILSM demonstrated superior capture of patient-specific characteristics compared to traditional learning schemes.
    • The framework is model-agnostic, allowing integration with various discriminative classifiers.
    • Achieved accurate (DSC ~0.89) and fast (~4s) prostate localization in treatment CTs.

    Conclusions:

    • ILSM effectively addresses the challenges of prostate localization in IGRT.
    • The framework offers a significant advancement for personalized radiotherapy.
    • The achieved speed and accuracy meet critical clinical requirements for IGRT workflows.
