Prospective Evaluation of an Online Atlas-based Educational Intervention on Head and Neck Organ-at-Risk (OAR) and Lymph Node Level (LNL) Contouring: A Pilot Feasibility Study using Web-based Feedback and Analytic Software

Uncertainties in volume delineation in radiation oncology: A systematic review and recommendations for future studies

“…These studies established if there was greater IOV between one dataset and another, independent of the magnitude, shape or other descriptors of the volumes being delineated. These studies were generally undertaken to determine if there was a factor which resulted in greater concordance between clinicians such as a different imaging modality [20,21,[24][25][26]32,37,41,45,57,58,68,69,73,[76][77][78][79]84,87,88,96,101,132], fiducials [16], training [36,56,62,75,122], guidelines or atlas [46,55,74,83,97,107,108,114,126,133] or provision of autosegmented contours to edit [15,51,73,80,82,94]. For large datasets comparing only two situations, the paired T-test was commonly used for assessing statistical significance…”

Usability study of the EduMod eLearning Program for contouring nodal stations of the head and neck

“…8,9 The few publications that evaluate eLearning programs specifically designed for radiation oncology use test performance as the main indication of the value of the activity. 6,7 The limitation of a test performance endpoint is related to 3 main factors. (1) The act of testing improves performance (testing is teaching).…”
