Imaging and Alignment for Image-Guided Radiation Therapy

Abstract

Image-guided radiation therapy is an exciting new area that focuses heavily on the potential benefit of advanced imaging and image registration to improve precision, thus limiting morbidity and potentially allowing for safe delivery of increased dose. This review explores the issues surrounding the use of imaging and image registration for treatment planning and verification, with emphasis on the underlying patient model and alignment algorithms.
