[Computer tomography in therapy planning (author's transl)]

A report is given on the utilization of computer tomography for the irradiation planning. Owing to international cooperation it was possible to use the obtained pictures as a basis for a computerized irradiation planning. The authors give some practical examples of optimized isodose plans for individual cases which have been elaborated by using the computer-tomographic cross-section pictures and the computerized system for irradiation planning and which give a good idea of the efficiency of the system.
