A better correspondence with time saving was observed for the misclassification rate than the quantitative contour measures explored. From this, we conclude that the inability to accurately judge the source of a contour indicates a reduced need for editing and therefore a greater time saving overall. Hence, task-based assessments of contouring performance may be considered as an additional way of evaluating the clinical utility of autosegmentation methods.
