PET/CT in radiotherapy planning
PET/CT in radiotherapy planning[electronic resource] /edited by Sue Chua. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2017. - xvi, 78 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Clinicians' guides to radionuclide hybrid imaging. - Clinicians' guides to radionuclide hybrid imaging..

Radiotherapy planning in oncology: science and practice -- Part I PET/CT in radiotherapy planning: Instrumentation -- Patient preparation and setup -- Data acquisition, reconstruction and transfer -- Sources of artifacts: consequences and solutions -- Advantages and limitations -- 4D-PET/CT respiratory gated acquisition techniques -- Part II PET/CT in radiotherapy planning: current evidence: Lung cancer -- Head and neck Cancers -- Gastrointestinal Malignancies -- Prostate cancer -- Gynaecological Cancers -- Paediatric Cancers.

This pocket book offers a succinct but comprehensive overview of the role of PET/CT in radiotherapy planning. Individual chapters are devoted to specific application of the technique to particular tumor types, including non-small cell lung, gastrointestinal, head and neck squamous cell, prostate, gynecological, and pediatric tumors. Helpful information is also presented on the practical implementation of PET/CT in routine oncological practice. Technical and logistical issues are discussed, and guidance provided on potential problems and pitfalls and available solutions. The book will be invaluable in assisting readers to exploit PET/CT's ability to significantly improve delineation of tumor tissue through the addition of metabolic information to structural imaging data, thereby avoiding unnecessary radiation injury and associated complications while enhancing therapeutic effects and minimizing the risk of marginal recurrences. It is published within the Springer series Clinicians' Guides to Radionuclide Hybrid Imaging, compiled under the auspices of the British Nuclear Medicine Society.
