A Survey on Automatic Delineation of Radiotherapy Target Volume based on Machine Learning

ABSTRACT Radiotherapy is one of the main treatment methods for cancer, and the delineation of the radiotherapy target area is the basis and premise of precise treatment. Artificial intelligence technology represented by machine learning has done a lot of research in this area, improving the accuracy and efficiency of target delineation. This article will review the applications and research of machine learning in medical image matching, normal organ delineation and treatment target delineation according to the procudures of doctors to delineate the target volume, and give an outlook on the development prospects.
