Objective

The project aims at allowing plan adaptation throughout the treatment course by means of CBCT. This imaging technique is at its early stage in radio– and proton-therapy application and it is not yet considered a reliable tool for planning. We would like to use Deformable registration algorithms and automatic segmentation for:

  • dose adaptation on the basis of a displacement field obtained by image co-registration, which could nevetheless lead to non consistent plans both from physics and technology point of view (i.e. are not deliverable).
  • organ shape prediction both intra- and across patients
