Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging enables non-invasive monitoring of ion beam radiooncology treatments. This study outlines PET implementation for guiding carbon ion therapy and quantifying dose deviations.

Area of Science:

Medical Physics
Oncology
Radiotherapy

Background:

Positron emission tomography (PET) is the sole non-invasive method for in situ monitoring of radiooncology treatments using ion beams.
Accurate dose delivery is crucial for effective ion beam therapy.

Purpose of the Study:

To outline the clinical implementation of PET imaging at an experimental carbon ion therapy facility.
To present an interactive approach for PET-guided quantification of local dose deviations from the treatment plan.

Main Methods:

Implementation of PET imaging technology at the Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (GSI) carbon ion therapy facility.
Development of an interactive tool for PET-guided dose analysis.

Main Results:
