Deep learning for segmentation of the cervical cancer gross tumor volume on magnetic resonance imaging for brachytherapy

Abstract Background Segmentation of the Gross Tumor Volume (GTV) is a crucial step in the brachytherapy (BT) treatment planning workflow. Currently, radiation oncologists segment the GTV manually, which is time-consuming. The time pressure is particularly critical for BT because during the segmentat...
