Deep learning vs. atlas-based models for fast auto-segmentation of the masticatory muscles on head and neck CT images
Abstract Background Impaired function of masticatory muscles will lead to trismus. Routine delineation of these muscles during planning may improve dose tracking and facilitate dose reduction resulting in decreased radiation-related trismus. This study aimed to compare a deep learning model with a c...
