Benefits of deep learning for delineation of organs at risk in head and neck cancer

•Validation of automated delineation of organs at risk in head and neck cancer.•Automated delineation is more time efficient.•Automated delineation reduces interobserver variability. Precise delineation of organs at risk (OARs) in head and neck cancer (HNC) is necessary for accurate radiotherapy. Al...
