Deep learning-based organs/structures-at-risk(OARs) auto-contouring models can improve radiotherapy workflows, but models trained on adult data often underperform in pediatric patients. Developing robust pediatric-specific models is…

Segmentation of multiple organs-at-risk (OARs) is essential for radiation therapy treatment planning and other clinical applications. We developed an Automated deep Learning-based Abdominal Multi-Organ segmentation (ALAMO) framework based…

Over half a million individuals are diagnosed with head and neck cancer each year worldwide. Radiotherapy is an important curative treatment for this disease, but it requires manual time consuming delineation of radio-sensitive organs at…

Automatic segmentation of organs-at-risk (OAR) in computed tomography (CT) is an essential part of planning effective treatment strategies to combat lung and esophageal cancer. Accurate segmentation of organs surrounding tumours helps…

Most deep learning models in medical imaging are trained on adult data with unclear performance on pediatric images. In this work, we aim to address this challenge in the context of automated anatomy segmentation in whole-body Computed…

Automatic localization and segmentation of organs-at-risk (OAR) in CT are essential pre-processing steps in medical image analysis tasks, such as radiation therapy planning. For instance, the segmentation of OAR surrounding tumors enables…

Deep learning models benefit from training with a large dataset (labeled or unlabeled). Following this motivation, we present an approach to learn a deep learning model for the automatic segmentation of Organs at Risk (OARs) in cervical…

The delineation of tumor target and organs-at-risk is critical in the radiotherapy treatment planning. Automatic segmentation can be used to reduce the physician workload and improve the consistency. However, the quality assurance of the…

Organ at risk (OAR) segmentation is a crucial step for treatment planning and outcome determination in radiotherapy treatments of cancer patients. Several deep learning based segmentation algorithms have been developed in recent years,…

Accurate segmentation of organ at risk (OAR) play a critical role in the treatment planning of image guided radiation treatment of head and neck cancer. This segmentation task is challenging for both human and automatic algorithms because…

Purpose: To present a high-performing, robust, and flexible deep learning pipeline for automatic segmentation of 30 organs-at-risk (OARs) in head and neck (H&N) cancer patients, using MRI, CT, or both. Method: We trained a segmentation…

Segmentation of regions of interest in images of patients, is a crucial step in many medical procedures. Deep neural networks have proven to be particularly adept at this task. However, a key question is what type of deep neural network to…

Accurate and robust segmentation of abdominal organs on CT is essential for many clinical applications such as computer-aided diagnosis and computer-aided surgery. But this task is challenging due to the weak boundaries of organs, the…

Organs-at-risk (OAR) delineation in computed tomography (CT) is an important step in Radiation Therapy (RT) planning. Recently, deep learning based methods for OAR delineation have been proposed and applied in clinical practice for separate…

We implemented and evaluated a multiple resolution residual network (MRRN) for multiple normal organs-at-risk (OAR) segmentation from computed tomography (CT) images for thoracic radiotherapy treatment (RT) planning. Our approach…

Our understanding of organs at risk is progressing to include physical small tissues such as coronary arteries and the radiosensitivities of many small organs and tissues are high. Therefore, the accurate segmentation of small volumes in…

Radiation therapy has emerged as one of the preferred techniques to treat brain cancer patients. During treatment, a very high dose of radiation is delivered to a very narrow area. Prescribed radiation therapy for brain cancer requires…

The accurate segmentation of organs-at-risk (OARs) in head and neck CT images is a critical step for radiation therapy of head and neck cancer patients. However, manual delineation for numerous OARs is time-consuming and laborious, even for…

In radiotherapy planning, manual contouring is labor-intensive and time-consuming. Accurate and robust automated segmentation models improve the efficiency and treatment outcome. We aim to develop a novel hybrid deep learning approach,…

We present a deep learning segmentation model that can automatically and robustly segment all major anatomical structures in body CT images. In this retrospective study, 1204 CT examinations (from the years 2012, 2016, and 2020) were used…
