Abdominal, multi-organ, auto-contouring method for online adaptive magnetic resonance guided radiotherapy: An intelligent, multi-level fusion approach

作者：

Highlights：

• MR-ART consists of daily modification of the radiation therapy plan.

• Manual contouring is laborious, subject to variability and inconvenient for MR-ART.

• An auto-contouring method based on the human processing model is proposed.

• The algorithm couples multi-level top-down and bottom-up information.

• To our knowledge, this is the first automated contouring approach for T1 MR-ART.
