Summary

Aim of this study is the clinical evaluation of an image-guided adaptive radiotherapy concept. This involves the adaption of the radiotherapy treatment plan according to changes in tissues and variations in patients position and posture during a radiotherapy treatment course, based on repeat CT scans.

It is investigated, if dosimetric improvements can be achieved using this approach and if the method using the software-package "ReDeform" can be implemented in clinical Routine.

Conditions

Interventions

RADIATION

Follow-up CT scans during week 3 and week 5 of treatment

Scheduled follow-up planning CT scan and re-optimisation of the intensity modulation radiation therapy (IMRT)-based radiotherapy Treatment plan. Dosimetric Evaluation and assessment of morphologic changes.
