Feasibility study on image guided patient positioning for stereotactic body radiation therapy of liver malignancies guided by liver motion
BACKGROUND Fiducial markers are the superior method to compensate for interfractional motion in liver SBRT. However this method is invasive and thereby limits its application range. In this retrospective study, the compensation method for the interfractional motion using fiducial markers (gold standard) was compared to a new non-invasive approach, which does rely on the organ motion of the live...
متن کاملAssessment of Olfactory Threshold in Patients Undergoing Radiotherapy for Head and Neck Malignancies
Introduction: Radiotherapy is a common treatment modality for patients with head and neck malignancies. As the nose lies within the field of radiotherapy of the head and neck, the olfactory fibers and olfactory receptors may be affected by radiation. The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in olfactory threshold in patients with head and neck malignancies who have received radiation to th...
متن کاملA fast model for prediction of respiratory lung motion for image-guided radiotherapy: A feasibility study
Background: The aim of this work was to study the feasibility of constructing a fast thorax model suitable for simulating lung motion due to respiration using only one CT dataset. Materials and Methods: For each of six patients with different thorax sizes, two sets of CT images were obtained in single-breath-hold inhale and exhale stages in the supine position. The CT images were then ...
متن کاملMR-guided laser induced thermotherapy (LITT) of liver metastases
Purpose To demonstrate clinical findings and imaging criteria of side-effects and complications immediatly and delayed after the MR-guided LITT for the treatment of liver metastases. Material and methods In a time frame of 6 years 411 patients were prospectively treated with MR-guided LITT for liver metastases. Between June 1993 and March 1999 a total of 2440 laser applications were performed t...
متن کاملMR-guided focused ultrasound ablation of the rat liver
Introduction MR-guided therapeutic ultrasound, specifically high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), has become increasingly prominent among the range of treatments for localized tumors. This technique is used clinically for the treatment of uterine fibroids, prostate and liver cancer. To study hepatocellular carcinoma an appropriate animal model must be established. Rodent models are preferre...
