Image analysis of 4D MRI images for improved radiotherapy of lung cancer patients.

Effective radiotherapy planning (RTP) for lungs cancer treatment required maximum soft tissue image contrast and this can be achieved by using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In recent years, interest has been grown in the development of RTP techniques based solely on MR images. In addition, resea...
