Original abstract
Accurate organ-at-risk segmentation is essential for radiotherapy planning, but reviewing segmentations is time-consuming and subjective. We investigate normative modelling for segmentation error detection in head-and-neck CT, comparing a VAE framework with an image-conditioned segmentation diffusion model. Models were evaluated on RADCURE brainstem and spinal cord segmentations using simulated boundary and width perturbations. Error detection was assessed using the Dice similarity coefficient and the Distance to Agreement (DTA) between the input and reconstructed segmentations. While both models detected some simulated errors, regional DTA showed that the diffusion model localised subtle boundary errors more consistently. These results support image-conditioned diffusion reconstruction as a promising framework for localised, anatomy-aware segmentation QA.
