Postoperative radiotherapy for glioma: improved delineation of the clinical target volume using the geodesic distance calculation.
OBJECTS: To introduce a new method for generating the clinical target volume (CTV) from gross tumor volume (GTV) using the geodesic distance calculation for glioma. METHODS: One glioblastoma patient was enrolled. The GTV and natural barriers were contoured on each slice of the computer tomography (C...
