METHOD FOR DETERMINING INFORMATION USED AS THE BASIS FOR CALCULATING A RADIOTHERAPY TREATMENT PLAN AND COMBINED MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING/PET DEVICE

摘要

A method for determining information used as the basis for calculating a radiotherapy treatment plan. In at least one embodiment, the method includes essentially simultaneous capture of PET data and magnetic resonance imaging data using a combined magnetic resonance imaging/PET device and determination of at least one magnetic resonance imaging data set and at least one PET data set from the data; and determination of a distortion-corrected magnetic resonance imaging data set and an attenuation data set from the magnetic resonance imaging data, whereby PET data is taken into consideration during the distortion correction and/or during the determination of the attenuation data set.
