Measurement of image rotation angle in CT for radiotherapy treatment planning

The geometric accuracy of CT images is essential when they are used for planning radiation therapy. In this study, a method of quantitative testing of image rotation in CT is presented, based on the automated analysis of an image of a phantom half-filled with water. A plug-in was written for ImageJ software for automated detection of a water surface in an image and measurement of its angle rela...

Investigating the effects of different kernels used for CT image reconstruction on dose distributions in treatment planning of kidney cancer radiotherapy

Introduction: The quality of CT images used for treatment planning of cancer patients is an important issue in accurate outlining of the tumor volume and organs at risk. Different kernels in CT scanner systems are available for improving the image quality. Applying these kernels  on   CT  images  will  change   the   CT  numbers  and  electron   density   of   tissues, conse...

The calibration of CT Hounsfield units for radiotherapy treatment planning.

Computer tomographic (CT) scans are used to correct for tissue inhomogeneities in radiotherapy treatment planning. In order to guarantee a precise treatment, it is important to obtain the relationship between CT Hounsfield units and electron densities (or proton stopping powers for proton radiotherapy), which is the basic input for radiotherapy planning systems which consider tissue heterogenei...

Nonrigid Image Registration for Head and Neck Cancer Radiotherapy Treatment Planning With PET/CT

PURPOSE Head and neck radiotherapy planning with positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) requires the images to be reliably registered with treatment planning CT. Acquiring PET/CT in treatment position is problematic, and in practice for some patients it may be beneficial to use diagnostic PET/CT for radiotherapy planning. Therefore, the aim of this study was first to quantify...
