DOI: 10.1007/s12149-021-01703-7
Abstract: Accurate target delineation is an absolute requirement for modern radiotherapy planning. Historically, structural imaging modalities have been used for this purpose, but there is a considerable role for functional imaging with PET/CT to contribute in… read more here.

DOI: 10.21037/cco.2020.01.09
Abstract: BACKGROUND Metallic implants (MIs) complicate radiotherapy planning. Several studies have worked on tissue-equivalent phantoms as experimental models to estimate dose distributions in this context. The application of these results to clinical practice remains disputable because… read more here.
