Research status of ultrasound-guided radiotherapy for tumors / 中华放射肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

Image-guided techniques are critical to improving the accuracy of radiotherapy for tumors. Ultrasound images have been gradually applied in the set-up verification of clinical radiotherapy and adaptive radiotherapy because of the real-time, reproducible and non-radiative characteristics. In this paper, the application of ultrasound image-guided technology in radiotherapy was classified and analyzed, and the latest research progress was introduced.
