Artificial intelligence contouring in radiotherapy for organs-at-risk and lymph node areas.

Journal: Radiation oncology (London, England)
PMID: 39574153

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: The delineation of organs-at-risk and lymph node areas is a crucial step in radiotherapy, but it is time-consuming and associated with substantial user-dependent variability in contouring. Artificial intelligence (AI) appears to be the solution to facilitate and standardize this work. The objective of this study is to compare eight available AI software programs in terms of technical aspects and accuracy for contouring organs-at-risk and lymph node areas with current international contouring recommendations.
