Abstract

This study describes the development and evaluation of an auto-segmentation tool for the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD), on non-contrast planning computed tomography scans of breast cancer patients. The dosimetric parameters of the auto-segmented LAD contours are highly correlated with those of manual contours (R<sup>2</sup>-values ≥0.89).
