Dosimetric evaluation of synthetic CT for magnetic resonance-only based radiotherapy planning of lung cancer
BACKGROUND Interest in MR-only treatment planning for radiation therapy is growing rapidly with the emergence of integrated MRI/linear accelerator technology. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using synthetic CT images generated from conventional Dixon-based MRI scans for radiation treatment planning of lung cancer. METHODS Eleven patients who underwent whole-body P...
متن کاملDevelopment of MR-Only Planning for Prostate Radiation Therapy Using Synthetic CT
The department of Radiation Oncology at Calvary Mater Newcastle, treats approximately 1,800 new patients per year. When it comes to prostate treatments, MR scans are used in addition to CT for treatment planning. Having to undergo two scans however is a burden both to patients as well as the health system. We have looked into addressing this by replacing the CT by an MR-only workflow when treat...
متن کاملMR-guided multi-atlas based synthetic CT for MR-only radiotherapy of head and neck cancer patients
S71 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ provided by dual-energy CT (DECT) compared to singleenergy CT (SECT) can be clinically used to reduce CT-based range uncertainties and to analyze intraand interpatient tissue variations. First, a DECT scan protocol was optimized and clinically introduced. Second, in a first analysis patien...
متن کاملIterative framework for the joint segmentation and CT synthesis of MR images: application to MRI-only radiotherapy treatment planning
To tackle the problem of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-only radiotherapy treatment planning (RTP), we propose a multi-atlas information propagation scheme that jointly segments organs and generates pseudo x-ray computed tomography (CT) data from structural MR images (T1-weighted and T2-weighted). As the performance of the method strongly depends on the quality of the atlas database composed ...
متن کاملAtlas-guided generation of pseudo-CT images for MRI-only and hybrid PET-MRI-guided radiotherapy treatment planning.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided attenuation correction (AC) of positron emission tomography (PET) data and/or radiation therapy (RT) treatment planning is challenged by the lack of a direct link between MRI voxel intensities and electron density. Therefore, even if this is not a trivial task, a pseudo-computed tomography (CT) image must be predicted from MRI alone. In this work, we prop...
