MRI geometric distortion: Impact on tangential whole‐breast IMRT
The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) geometric distortions when using MRI for target delineation and planning for whole-breast, intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). Residual system distortions and combined systematic and patient-induced distortions are considered. This retrospective study investigated 18 patients who underwent whole-breas...
متن کاملCommissioning the First Mobile Dedicated Accelerator for Intraoperative Electron Radiotherapy in Iran
Introduction: Intraoperative radiotherapy is a radiotherapy technique in which a high single fraction of radiation dose is delivered to the patient after surgery and Concurrent with anesthesia time. The most frequent method for IORT implementation is Intraoperative electron radiotherapy (IOERT), in which, some dedicated and high dose per pulse electron accelerators are employe...
متن کاملMultiparametric Quantitative MRI as a Metric for Radiation Treatment Planning
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides excellent soft tissue contrast, and in combination with its quantitative functional imaging capability, this modality is ideal for use in radiotherapy. MRI images, either used directly or fused with CT, play an increasingly important role in contouring gross tumor volume (GTV) and organs at risk (OAR) in radiation treatment planning (RTP) systems. The s...
متن کاملGeometric distortion evaluation of magnetic resonance images by a new large field of view phantom for magnetic resonance based radiotherapy purposes
Background: The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiotherapy planning method have been considered in recent years because of the advantages of MRI and the problems of planning with two images modality. The first step in MRI-based radiotherapy is to evaluate magnetic resonance (MR) images geometric distortion. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate system related geometric distort...
