Learn how computed tomography is used for image guidance and understand the special considerations and requirements for image guidance during simulation and treatment planning. This article details in-room CT platforms and describes quality assurance practices and the radiation therapist’s role in those practices. It also demonstrates target definition and localization during online matching at the treatment unit, explains the role of CT during image-guided adaptive radiation therapy and discusses the role of image guidance using CT for intensity-modulated radiation therapy, volumetric-modulated arc therapy, stereotactic treatments and brachytherapy. This course is presented as a PDF, so it can be easily printed or read on an electronic device.
Image-guided Radiation Therapy: Computed Tomography is the second in a series of eight PDF articles that cover a wide range of guidance options in radiation oncology. After successful completion of all eight articles, you will receive a document recognizing your achievement.
