Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for contouring a set of medical images. Deformation field data is generated between a source image and a target image of the set of medical images. The deformation field data relates structures in the source image to corresponding structures in the target image and is generated in accordance with a deformable registration algorithm. The deformation field data is utilized to generate target contour data associated with the target image from source contour data, associated with the source image, that identifies one or more objects within the source image.
