Computerized Treatment

Imaging devices aid clinicians in disease staging and treatment planning procedures for cancer patients. In this technical report, the basic physics of positron emission tomography (PET) are briefly discussed. The integration of PET images into radiation therapy computerized treatment planning systems (TPS) for PET and computed tomography (CT) image fusion via portable storage media and Web-based PET image manipulation software is described. The PET images were obtained from a mobile dual PET/CT scanner (Discovery ST, GE Medical Systems) located two miles away from our radiation therapy center, and were fused with CT images from an independent stand-alone CT scanner (Siemens Somatom Emotion). Quality assurance for treatment planning PET images as well as radiation safety issues related to PET are also briefly discussed.
