Deep learning-based auto-segmentation of targets and organs-at-risk for magnetic resonance imaging only planning of prostate radiotherapy

Background and purpose: Magnetic resonance (MR) only radiation therapy for prostate treatment provides superior contrast for defining targets and organs-at-risk (OARs). This study aims to develop a deep learning model to leverage this advantage to automate the contouring process. Materials and metho...
