RT Planning for Lymphomas
•
Role of imaging in radiation planning
•
3D imaging (with CT supplemented by functional imaging: PET-CT)
•
The use of diagnostic contrast-enhanced CT is recommended to help to
delineate nodal stations and differentiate nodes from vessels
•
Ideally, imaging studies with the patient in the treatment position and using
the planned immobilization devices
•
Acquiring high-quality imaging is fundamental to high-quality RT planning
