[Therapy planning at the CT (author's transl)].

H Gfirtner, A Breit

    Strahlentherapie
    |April 1, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary

    A new therapy planning system integrated with computed tomography (CT) hardware allows overlaying CT images with isodoses. This system improves treatment verification using skin markers and simultaneous recording of isodoses and anatomical data.
