Objective(s): 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET-CT) is a well-used and established technique for lung cancer staging. Radiation therapy requires accurate target volume delineation, which is difficult in most cases due to coexisting atelectasis. The present study was performed to compare the 18F-FDG PET-CT with contrast enhanced computed tomogr...
The goal of radiation therapy is to deliver a lethal dose of radiation to diseased tissue while minimising dose to surrounding healthy structures. Prior to the actual treatment delivery, treatment planning is the most critical part of a patient’s radiation treatment management. The most crucial step is the accurate localisation and delineation of the target volume. Advances in tumour localisati...
In the thorax, the extent of tumor may be more accurately defined with the addition of (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) to computed tomography (CT). This led to the increased utility of FDG-PET or PET/CT in the treatment planning of radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The inclusion of FDG-PET information in target volume delineation not only imp...
BACKGROUND Modern radiotherapy techniques enable delivery of high doses to the target volume without escalating dose to organs at risk, offering the possibility of better local control while preserving good quality of life. Uncertainties in target volume delineation have been demonstrated for most tumour sites, and various studies indicate that inconsistencies in target volume delineation may b...
Radiotherapy is a tumor treatment process using high dose of radiation. Hence, it is essential that radiotherapy is carefully planned with a Treatment Planning System (TPS). The first step in TPS is delineation that aims to get a better picture of the tumor and the target volume value. This research investigated volume target delineation for brain tumor against the MRI image of the head in axia...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In early-stage classical Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) the target volume nowadays consists of the volume of the originally involved nodes. Delineation of this volume on a post-chemotherapy CT-scan is challenging. We report on the interobserver variability in target volume definition and its impact on resulting treatment plans. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two representative cases were...
The success of radiotherapy depends on the accurate delineation of the clinical target volume. The delineation of the lymph node regions has most impact, especially for tumors in the head and neck region. The purpose of this article was the development an atlas for the delineation of the clinical target volume for patients, who should receive radiotherapy for a tumor of the head and neck region...
