Deep learning-based segmentation of prostatic urethra on computed tomography scans for treatment planning

Background and purpose: The intraprostatic urethra is an organ at risk in prostate cancer radiotherapy, but its segmentation in computed tomography (CT) is challenging. This work sought to: i) propose an automatic pipeline for intraprostatic urethra segmentation in CT, ii) analyze the dose to the ur...
