Deformable registration for image-guided radiation therapy.
Ths paper examines several applications of deformable registration algorithms in the field of image-guided radiotherapy. The first part focuses on the description of input and output of deformable registration algorithms, with a brief review of conventional and most current methods. The typical applications of deformable registration are then reviewed on the basis of four practical examples. Th...
متن کاملDeformable image registration in radiation therapy
The number of imaging data sets has significantly increased during radiation treatment after introducing a diverse range of advanced techniques into the field of radiation oncology. As a consequence, there have been many studies proposing meaningful applications of imaging data set use. These applications commonly require a method to align the data sets at a reference. Deformable image registra...
متن کاملDeformable Image Registration for Radiation Therapy Planning: Algorithms and Applications
Approximately 60% of cancer patients are treated with external beam radiotherapy at some point during disease management. Despite the extended time frame of fractionated therapy (4–6 weeks), radiation therapy planning is carried out based on information that is currently limited to a single 3D anatomical computed tomography scan at the onset of treatment. This concept may result in severe treat...
متن کاملDeformable registration using edge‐preserving scale space for adaptive image‐guided radiation therapy
Incorporating of daily cone-beam computer tomography (CBCT) image into online radiation therapy process can achieve adaptive image-guided radiation therapy (AIGRT). Registration of planning CT (PCT) and daily CBCT are the key issues in this process. In our work, a new multiscale deformable registration method is proposed by combining edge-preserving scale space with the multilevel free-form def...
متن کاملA contour-guided deformable image registration algorithm for adaptive radiotherapy.
In adaptive radiotherapy, deformable image registration is often conducted between the planning CT and treatment CT (or cone beam CT) to generate a deformation vector field (DVF) for dose accumulation and contour propagation. The auto-propagated contours on the treatment CT may contain relatively large errors, especially in low-contrast regions. A clinician's inspection and editing of the propa...
