Fully automated segmentation of prostatic urethra for MR‐guided radiation therapy

Abstract

Accurate delineation of the urethra is a prerequisite for urethral dose reduction in prostate radiotherapy. However, even in magnetic resonance‐guided radiation therapy (MRgRT), consistent delineation of the urethra is challenging, particularly in online adaptive radiotherapy. This paper presented a fully automatic MRgRT‐based prostatic urethra segmentation framework.
