Method for constructing database about organ of patient, involves determining data assigned to organ, and storing data in organ database as supplementary organ-specific information e.g. dose absorption, assigned to corresponding organ

摘要

The method involves automatically determining data assigned to an organ exhibiting a tumor (9) while irradiating the tumor of a patient (3) by a radiation therapy device. The data are stored in an organ database (12) as supplementary organ-specific information e.g. dose absorption, assigned to the corresponding organ. The data are determined by an imaging apparatus i.e. x-ray unit, by a probe (14) arranged at the patient and/or by another probe (13) e.g. photon detector, implanted in the patient. The data are determined by analysis of an irradiation beam (6) through the patient. The irradiation beam is X-raying or gamma radiation. An independent claim is also included for a radiation therapy device.
