Radiotherapy planning using MRI.
The use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in radiotherapy (RT) planning is rapidly expanding. We review the wide range of image contrast mechanisms available to MRI and the way they are exploited for RT planning. However a number of challenges are also considered: the requirements that MR images are acquired in the RT treatment position, that they are geometrically accurate, that effects of p...
متن کاملRadiotherapy treatment planning
In radical radiotherapy treatment we aim to accurately deliver a lethal dose of radiation to tumour cells while sparing any surrounding normal tissues. Radiotherapy treatment planning is the process undertaken to determine the most appropriate way to deliver the radiation in order to meet the clinical prescription. Rapid advances in technology and computing, particularly in relation to imaging,...
متن کاملTreatment planning for the GSI radiotherapy
Throughout the year 2000 our standard treatment planning software TRiP98 [1, 2] which went into production last year [3] was used in combination with the Voxelplan environment for the planning of all 32 patients [4]. Specific improvements on the software side were the introduction of inhomogeneous dose prescriptions, extensions of the beam model and addition of auxiliary functions. Inhomogeneou...
متن کاملTreatment Planning for the Carbon Ion Radiotherapy
In the three therapy beam times 2007 about 50 patients were planned and treated with our treatment planning software, TRiP98, and its development version, TRiP98BEAM. In the past, the standard method was to optimize the biological target dose distribution for the contributing partial fields singly. Due to the enormous effort for the computation of biological effects, only a simple, but still su...
متن کاملImaging tumour motion for radiotherapy planning using MRI
Novel technology has made dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of lung motion and lung tumour mobility during continuous respiration feasible. This might be beneficial for planning of radiotherapy of lung tumours, especially when using high precision techniques. This paper describes the recent developments to analyze and visualize pulmonary nodules during continuous respiration using MRI. B...
