Exploring EEG Responses during Observation of Actions Performed by Human Actor and Humanoid Robot
Action observation (AO) therapy is a promising rehabilitative treatment for motor and language function in individuals recovering from neurological conditions, such as stroke. This pilot study aimed to investigate the potential of humanoid robots to support AO therapy in rehabilitation settings. The brain activity of three healthy right-handed participants was monitored with electroencephalography (EEG) while they observed eight different actions performed by two agents, a human actor and a rob…

Patient-Specific Deep Reinforcement Learning for Automatic Replanning in Head-and-Neck Cancer Proton Therapy
Malvern Madondo, Yuan Shao, Yingzi Liu, Jun Zhou, Xiaofeng Yang, Zhen Tian
https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.10073

Patient-Specific Deep Reinforcement Learning for Automatic Replanning in Head-and-Neck Cancer Proton Therapy
Anatomical changes during intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) for head-and-neck cancer (HNC) can shift Bragg peaks, risking tumor underdosing and organ-at-risk overdosing. As a result, treatment replanning is often required to maintain clinically acceptable treatment quality. However, current manual replanning processes are resource-intensive and time-consuming. We propose a patient-specific deep reinforcement learning (DRL) framework for automated IMPT replanning, with a reward-shaping m…

Fine-Tuning Large Audio-Language Models with LoRA for Precise Temporal Localization of Prolonged Exposure Therapy Elements
Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy is an effective treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but evaluating therapist fidelity remains labor-intensive due to the need for manual review of session recordings. We present a method for the automatic temporal localization of key PE fidelity elements -- identifying their start and stop times -- directly from session audio and transcripts. Our approach fine-tunes a large pre-trained audio-language model, Qwen2-Audio, using Low-Rank Adaptation …

VChatter: Exploring Generative Conversational Agents for Simulating Exposure Therapy to Reduce Social Anxiety
Many people struggle with social anxiety, feeling fear, or even physically uncomfortable in social situations like talking to strangers. Exposure therapy, a clinical method that gradually and repeatedly exposes individuals to the source of their fear and helps them build coping mechanisms, can reduce social anxiety but traditionally requires human therapists' guidance and constructions of situations. In this paper, we developed a multi-agent system VChatter to explore large language models(LLMs…

Ground Reaction Force Estimation via Time-aware Knowledge Distillation
Human gait analysis with wearable sensors has been widely used in various applications, such as daily life healthcare, rehabilitation, physical therapy, and clinical diagnostics and monitoring. In particular, ground reaction force (GRF) provides critical information about how the body interacts with the ground during locomotion. Although instrumented treadmills have been widely used as the gold standard for measuring GRF during walking, their lack of portability and high cost make them impracti…

Rapid cardiac activation prediction for cardiac resynchronization therapy planning using geometric deep learning
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a common intervention for patients with dyssynchronous heart failure, yet approximately one-third of recipients fail to respond due to suboptimal lead placement. Identifying optimal pacing sites remains challenging, largely due to patient-specific anatomical variability and the limitations of current individualized planning strategies. In a step towards constructing an in-silico approach to help address this issue, we develop two geometric deep learnin…

A mathematical model of CAR-T cell therapy in combination with chemotherapy for malignant gliomas
We study the dynamics and interactions between combined chemotherapy and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-T) cells therapy and malignant gliomas (MG). MG is one of the most common primary brain tumor, with high resistance to therapy and unfavorable prognosis. Here, we develop a mathematical model that describes the application of chemo- and CAR-T cell therapies and the dynamics of sensitive and resistant populations of tumor cells. This model is a five-dimensional dynamical system with impulsive …

Commissioning, characterization and first high dose rate irradiations at a compact X-ray tube for microbeam and minibeam radiation therapy
Minibeam and microbeam radiation therapy promise improved treatment outcomes through reduced normal tissue toxicity at better tumor control rates. The lack of suitable compact radiation sources limits the clinical application of minibeams to superficial tumors and renders it impossible for microbeams. We developed and constructed the first prototype of a compact line-focus X-ray tube (LFXT) with technology potentially suitable for clinical translation of minibeams and microbeams. We give an ove…

Stochastic Model of siRNA Endosomal Escape Mediated by Fusogenic Peptides in OVCAR-3
Gene silencing via small interfering RNA (siRNA) represents a transformative tool in cancer therapy, offering specificity and reduced off-target effects compared to conventional treatments. A crucial step in siRNA-based therapies is endosomal escape, the release of siRNA from endosomes into the cytoplasm. Quantifying endosomal escape is challenging due to the dynamic nature of the process and limitations in imaging and analytical techniques. Traditional methods often rely on fluorescence intens…

Cerebral Autosomal Dominant Arteriopathy with Subcortical Infarcts and Leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL): Immunotherapy and Cell Therapy approaches
This article focuses on current and emerging therapeutics for CADASIL (Cerebral Autosomal Dominant Arteriopathy with Subcortical Infarcts and Leukoencephalopathy). CADASIL is an inherited vascular disease that impairs blood flow in the small cerebral vessels of the brain, leading to strokes and other neurological deficits. The disease is caused by a mutation in the NOTCH3 gene located on chromosome 19. NOTCH3 encodes a transmembrane receptor expressed on vascular smooth muscle cells. In CADASIL…

A Positivity-Preserving Finite Element Framework for Accurate Dose Computation in Proton Therapy
We present a stabilised finite element method for modelling proton transport in tissue, incorporating both inelastic energy loss and elastic angular scattering. A key innovation is a positivity-preserving formulation that guarantees non-negative fluence and dose, even on coarse meshes. This enables reliable computation of clinically relevant quantities for treatment planning. We derive a priori error estimates demonstrating optimal convergence rates and validate the method through numerical ben…

Diffusion Transformer-based Universal Dose Denoising for Pencil Beam Scanning Proton Therapy
Purpose: Intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) offers precise tumor coverage while sparing organs at risk (OARs) in head and neck (H&N) cancer. However, its sensitivity to anatomical changes requires frequent adaptation through online adaptive radiation therapy (oART), which depends on fast, accurate dose calculation via Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. Reducing particle count accelerates MC but degrades accuracy. To address this, denoising low-statistics MC dose maps is proposed to enable fas…
