A general model for head and neck auto‐segmentation with patient pre‐treatment imaging during adaptive radiation therapy

Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background During head and neck (HN) radiation therapy, patients may undergo anatomical changes due to tumor shrinkage or weight loss. For these patients, adaptive radiation therapy (ART) is required to correct treatment plans and to ensure that the prescribed radiation dose is delivered to the tumor while minimizing dose to the surrounding ...
