Abstract

BACKGROUND: With the rapid growth of deep learning research for medical applications comes the need for clinical personnel to be comfortable and familiar with these techniques. Taking a proven approach, we developed a straightforward open-source framework for producing automatic contours for head and neck planning computed tomography studies using a convolutional neural network (CNN).
