Publikováno v: Radiotherapy and Oncology. 103:360-366

Background and purpose Pancreatic radiotherapy (RT) is limited by uncertain target motion. We quantified 3D patient/organ motion during pancreatic RT and calculated required treatment margins. Materials and methods Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT

Publikováno v: Radiotherapy and Oncology. 77:45-52

Background and purpose Image Guidance of patient set-up for radiotherapy can be achieved by acquiring X-ray volumetric images (XVI) with Elekta Synergy and registering these to the planning CT scan. This enables full 3D registration of structures fro

Measurement of inter and intra fraction organ motion in radiotherapy using cone beam CT projection images

Autor: Christopher J Moore, Ali M Amer, Thomas E Marchant

Publikováno v: Marchant, T E, Amer, A M & Moore, C J 2008, ' Measurement of inter and intra fraction organ motion in radiotherapy using cone beam CT projection images ', Physics in Medicine and Biology, vol. 53, no. 4, pp. 1087-1098 . https://doi.org/10.1088/0031-9155/53/4/018

A method is presented for extraction of intra and inter fraction motion of seeds/markers within the patient from cone beam CT (CBCT) projection images. The position of the marker is determined on each projection image and fitted to a function describ
