Deep learning auto-segmentation and automated treatment planning for trismus risk reduction in head and neck cancer radiotherapy

Background and Purpose: Reducing trismus in radiotherapy for head and neck cancer (HNC) is important. Automated deep learning (DL) segmentation and automated planning was used to introduce new and rarely segmented masticatory structures to study if trismus risk could be decreased. Materials and Meth...
