Feasibility and relevance of discrete vasculature modeling in routine hyperthermia treatment planning

Feasibility and relevance of discrete vasculature modeling in routine hyperthermia treatment planning

Purpose: To investigate the effect of patient specific vessel cooling on head and neck hyperthermia treatment planning (HTP). Methods and materials: Twelve patients undergoing radiotherapy were scanned using computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and contrast enhanced MR angiogra...
