On the synthetic CT images, the contouring process for organs\u2010at\u2010risk (OARs) was automatically performed with minor adjustments, while two experienced radiation oncologists defined target volumes. Simultaneous integrated boost plans (2.2\/2.0\/1.8\u00a0Gy with 25 fractions) were produced from a commercial treatment planning system (TPS) TomoTherapy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The plans with two synthetic CT images were compared with those based on genuine CT images for the five test cases. High geometric similarity was confirmed for the planning target volume (PTV), with average dice similarity coefficient (DSC) of 0.844 for the DL\u2010based and 0.829 for the MRCAT images. The mean percentage difference in gross tumor volume (GTV) was 20.71  34.28% for DL\u2010based synthetic CT and 30.31  46.20% for MRCAT images. By contrast, PTV, encompassing GTV, exhibited minimal changes with an average increase of 0.37  3.10% and 1.66  7.62%, respectively. MRCAT images and DL\u2010based synthetic CT revealed significant differences, relative to true CT images, in the entire volume (\n                      <jats:italic>p\u00a0=\u00a00.03<\/jats:italic>\n
