Background Accurate segmentation of tumor targets is critical for maximizing tumor control and minimizing normal tissue toxicity. We proposed a sequential and iterative U-Net (SI-Net) deep learning method to auto-segment the high-risk primary tumor clinical target volume (CTVp1) for treatment planning of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) radiotherapy. Methods The SI-Net is a variant of the U-Net architecture. The input of SI-Net includes one CT image, the CTVp1 contour on this image, and the next CT image. The output is the predicted C
