A complete 4DCT‐ventilation functional avoidance virtual trial: Developing strategies for prospective clinical trials
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics"
DOI: 10.1002/acm2.12086
Abstract: Introduction 4DCT‐ventilation is an exciting new imaging modality that uses 4DCT data to calculate lung‐function maps. Because 4DCTs are acquired as standard of care for lung cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy, 4DCT‐ventiltation provides functional information at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12194-020-00572-5
Abstract: Functional lung avoidance during radiotherapy can help reduce pulmonary toxicity. This study assessed the potential impact of four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT)-ventilation imaging-guided proton radiotherapy (PT) on stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) by comparing it with three-dimensional… read more here.
