Citing RTpipeline

Cite the RTpipeline version you used and the DOI archived for its release tag. CITATION.cff holds the machine-readable metadata; GitHub's "Cite this repository" button formats it.

@software{rtpipeline_3_0_0,
  title = {RTpipeline: Automated Radiotherapy DICOM Processing Pipeline},
  author = {Stawiski, Konrad},
  version = {3.0.0},
  url = {https://github.com/kstawiski/rtpipeline},
  year = {2026}
}

When the bytes you ran differ from the release tag, for example a later commit or a locally modified configuration, report the git commit or the container image digest as well. The reproducibility guide has methods templates and lists the configuration files to deposit with a paper.

Also cite the components your analysis used:
