The cutting edge: Delineating contours with Deep Learning

This white paper co-authored by Chief Scientific Officer Mark Gooding, a key player in the creation of DLCExpertTM,  the worlds’ first clinically approved auto contouring tool, provides an in-depth yet concise guide into deep learning. This white paper is written in an accessible manner to allow non-scientist the ability to understand this often complex technology and area. It explores what deep learning and convolutional neural networks are, why it is helpful in Radiation Therapy, and contrasts deep learning with previous autocontouring approaches, such as Atlas methods, to showcase its advantages.  Read more here: http://mirada-medical.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/mm7121-0DLC-Technical-White-Paper.pdf
