Abstract
The present disclosure provides a system and method for precision tumor delineation in cancer treatment or diagnosis for subjects with carcinoma, in particular, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, based on contrast agent-free, virtual contrast-enhanced MRI data (VCE-MRI) synthesized by a modified multimodality-guided synergistic neural network trained with a more diversified training dataset and having a higher generalizability by minimizing data distribution variation between an external dataset and the training dataset through a data distribution matching mechanism before VCE-MRI synthesis.
