Journal ArticleDOI

Use of normal tissue complication probability models in the clinic.

TL;DR: The Quantitative Analysis of Normal Tissue Effects in the Clinic (QUANTEC) review summarizes the currently available three-dimensional dose/volume/outcome data to update and refine the normal tissue dose/ volume tolerance guidelines provided by the classic Emami et al. paper published in 1991.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative Analyses of Normal Tissue Effects in the Clinic (QUANTEC): An Introduction to the Scientific Issues

TL;DR: Clinical limitations to the current knowledge base include the need for more data on the effect of patient-related cofactors, interactions between dose distribution and cytotoxic or molecular targeted agents, and theeffect of dose fractions and overall treatment time in relation to nonuniform dose distributions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Respiration-correlated spiral CT: a method of measuring respiratory-induced anatomic motion for radiation treatment planning.

TL;DR: RCCT scans can be used in connection with respiratory-gated treatment to identify the patient-specific phase of minimum tumor motion, determine residual tumor motion within the gate interval, and compare treatment plans at different phases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Four-dimensional (4D) PET/CT imaging of the thorax.

TL;DR: 4D PET/CT is clinically a feasible method, to correct for respiratory motion artifacts in PET/ CT imaging of the thorax, and can reduce smearing, improve the accuracy in PET-CT co-registration, and increase the measured SUV.
