Background And Purpose: Manual contouring of neurovascular structures on prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is labor-intensive and prone to considerable interrater disagreement. Our aim is to contour neurovascular structures automatically on prostate MRI by deep learning (DL) to improve workflow and interrater agreement.
Materials And Methods: Segmentation of neurovascular structures was performed on pre-treatment 3.0 T MRI data of 131 prostate cancer patients (training [n = 105] and testing [n = 26]). The neurovascular structures include the penile bulb (PB), corpora cavernosa (CCs), internal pudendal arteries (IPAs), and neurovascular bundles (NVBs). Two DL networks, nnU-Net and DeepMedic, were trained for auto-contouring on prostate MRI and evaluated using volumetric Dice similarity coefficient (DSC), mean surface distances (MSD), Hausdorff distances, and surface DSC. Three radiation oncologists evaluated the DL-generated contours and performed corrections when necessary. Interrater agreement was assessed and the time required for manual correction was recorded.
Results: nnU-Net achieved a median DSC of 0.92 (IQR: 0.90-0.93) for the PB, 0.90 (IQR: 0.86-0.92) for the CCs, 0.79 (IQR: 0.77-0.83) for the IPAs, and 0.77 (IQR: 0.72-0.81) for the NVBs, which outperformed DeepMedic for each structure (p < 0.03). nnU-Net showed a median MSD of 0.24 mm for the IPAs and 0.71 mm for the NVBs. The median interrater DSC ranged from 0.93 to 1.00, with the majority of cases (68.9%) requiring manual correction times under two minutes.
Conclusions: DL enables reliable auto-contouring of neurovascular structures on pre-treatment MRI data, easing the clinical workflow in neurovascular-sparing MR-guided radiotherapy.
