Spectral Half-Value Layer Determination of Mammographic Beam Qualities

Half-value layer (HVL) is a common beam quality parameter, but physical measurement is often time-consuming and difficult. This work presents a faster spectral method for determining HVL for four sets of polyenergetic mammography beam qualities using a solid-...

Impact of Class-Imbalance Handling on Discrimination and Calibration In Multicenter Radiomic Survival Models

Radiomic survival models often have substantial class imbalance, which can distort patient ranking and reduce the reliability of predicted survival probabilities. This study evaluated commonly used imbalance-handling strategies and whether their effects chang...

Navigating the Shifting Landscape of Research Funding in the United States

With recent shifts in the federal funding landscape, many investigators are facing new challenges in supporting their research. An analysis of 2025 NIH data reveals a steep decline year-over-year in new grants awarded to AAPM members, raising serious concerns...

BLUE RIBBON POSTER IMAGING: Multimodal Prognostic Modeling In HNSCC: The Role of Radiomic Parameter Settings and Graph-Based Feature Selection

Radiomics models often exhibit unreliable performance and substantial variation across institutions. One aspect that has not been examined thoroughly is how parameter settings—such as normalization scale, outlier handling, and bin width—affect downstream resu...
