Automated clinical target volume delineation using deep 3D neural networks in radiation therapy of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Automated clinical target volume delineation using deep 3D neural networks in radiation therapy of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Background and purpose: Clinical targeted volume (CTV) delineation accounting for the patient-specific microscopic tumor spread can be a difficult step in defining the treatment volume. We developed an intelligent and automated CTV delineation system for locally advanced non-small cell lung carcinom...
