Variability in accuracy of prostate cancer segmentation among radiologists, urologists, and scientists

ConclusionSegmentation of prostate cancers is more difficult than other anatomy such as kidney tumors. Less experienced participants appear to under ‐segment models and underestimate the size of prostate tumors. Segmentation of prostate cancer is highly variable even among radiologists, and 3D modeling for clinical use must be performed with caution. Further work to develop a methodology to maximize segmentation accuracy is needed.
