Evaluation of a Novel Auto Segmentation Algorithm for Normal Structure Delineation in Radiation Treatment Planning

March 4, 2024 updated by: Mayo Clinic
This study measures the utility of a novel artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm for performing auto-segmentation of computed tomography (CT) scans for radiation therapy planning.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To measure the observed utility of an AI algorithm for head and neck normal segmentation by recording study subjects' observations of its function.

OUTLINE: This is an observational study.

Participants create and review output auto-segmentations of CT images using the AI algorithm and complete a survey about the performance/functionality of the auto segmentation algorithm on study.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of success
Time Frame: Baseline
Will be evaluated by question 1 of the end user survey, which evaluates the level of modification to the artificial intelligence generated auto-segmentation structures that was required (no modification, minor modification, or major modification). Auto-segmentation algorithm data will be collected through an electronic data collection form. All data will be presented in descriptive fashion, with descriptive statistics and appropriate graphic representation.
