Automatic segmentation offers many benefits for radiotherapy treatment planning; however, the lack of publicly available benchmark datasets limits the clinical use of automatic segmentation. In this work, we present a well-curated computed tomography (CT) dataset of high-quality manually drawn contours from patients with thoracic cancer that can be used to evaluate the accuracy of thoracic normal tissue auto-segmentation systems.
