Anatomy delineation is one of the most critical components of treatment planning, but perhaps the least tested and most subject to variability and error. Benjamin Nelms is the inventor of StructSure software (US Patent 8,081,813), owned by Standard Imaging. StructSure enables a plug-and-play, quantified assessment of contouring ability…per-clinician, per-organ, per-anything.
Here is a link to Standard Imaging’s commercial website for StructSure.
