| Review Title: | Current approaches to radiation oncology target volume delineation using PET/ computed tomography |
| Abstract: | PET/CT imaging offers significant benefits for radiation oncologists treating a variety of cancer types. It is effective at improving target volume delineation and the accuracy of radiotherapy delivery, and PET/CT imaging is on the cutting edge of personalized radiotherapy, facilitating adaptive treatment planning and focal dose escalation. Overall, the integration of PET/CT imaging in radiotherapy planning and delivery shows promise for improving patient outcomes across multiple cancer types. |
