Radiation treatment planning

Cancer, 1977
Radiation treatment planning has developed into a substantial and effective component of the entire radiation treatment approach. Over the last 2 decades, with the development of high energy electron and x-ray sources, and also with the availability of new radionuclides and techniques for internally applied radiation, all of which permit a high degree ...

Treatment Planning for Radiation Therapy

PET Clinics, 2018
PET scanning plays key roles in planning the management of patients with lung cancer who are candidates for curative-intent treatment with radiotherapy and has contributed to improvements in survival. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-PET is the most important modality for staging, patient selection, and radiotherapy target volume definition in patients with ...

Volume Visualization in Radiation Treatment Planning

Critical Reviews in Diagnostic Imaging, 2000
Radiation treatment planning (RTP), historically an image-intensive discipline and one of the first areas in which 3D information from imaging was clinically applied, has become even more critically dependent on accurate 3D definition of target and non-target structures in recent years with the advent of conformal radiation therapy.

A computer method for radiation treatment planning

Communications of the ACM, 1962
Automatic computation methods were first developed and applied to the problem of radiation therapy treatment planning by the Physics staff at Memorial Hospital and Sloan-Kettering Institute in 1954 and reported in 1955 [1]. The field of radiation from a single port was stored as a matrix in a library of punched cards, and a sorter and accounting ...

Objective Evaluation of Radiation Treatment Plans

Proceedings. Symposium on Computer Applications in Medical Care, 1993
The evaluation of radiation treatment plans involves making trade-offs among doses delivered to the tumor volumes and nearby normal tissues. Evaluating state-of-the-art three-dimensional (3D) plans is a difficult task because of the huge amount of planning data that needs to be deciphered.

Treatment planning for neutron radiation therapy

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 1977
Abstract Treatment-planning techniques developed for photon therapy have been freely borrowed for fast-neutron beam therapy, including methods of storing the measured data and subsequent manipulation to correct for patient contour, inhomogeneities, oblique incidence of the beam, and the presence of beam-modifying devices.

Treatment Planning for Particle Radiation Therapy

2015
Fast neutrons beams from the new medically dedicated cyclotrons in the US have depth dose characteristics comparable to photon beams from a 6-MV linear accelerator, at best. Treatment planning will have specific difficulties related to the relatively increased radiosensitivities of the brain, spinal cord, lens of the eye, and salivary gland. Therefore,
