Accuracy of an articulated head-and-neck motion model using deep learning-based instance segmentation of skeletal bones in CT scans for image registration in radiotherapy

Knowing about anatomical deformations in patient images is crucial for adaptive image-guided radiation therapy. Biomechanical models ensure biofidelity in deformable image registration, but manual contouring limits their clinical use. We investigate the application of automatically generated contour...
