Towards Automation in Radiotherapy Planning: A Deep Learning Approach for the Delineation of Parotid Glands in Head and Neck Cancer

Towards Automation in Radiotherapy Planning: A Deep Learning Approach for the Delineation of Parotid Glands in Head and Neck Cancer

The delineation of parotid glands in head and neck (HN) carcinoma is critical to assess radiotherapy (RT) planning. Segmentation processes ensure precise target position and treatment precision, facilitate monitoring of anatomical changes, enable plan adaptation, and enhance overall patient safety....
