Possibilities and challenges when using synthetic computed tomography in an adaptive carbon-ion treatment workflow

Background and purpose: Anatomical surveillance during ion-beam therapy is the basis for an effective tumor treatment and optimal organ at risk (OAR) sparing. Synthetic computed tomography (sCT) based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can replace the X-ray based planning CT (X-rayCT) in photon rad...
