Embodiment Construction

[0027] figure 1 A medical product according to an embodiment of the invention is diagrammatically shown. The medical product comprises a user interface 105 . In the user interface, a patient can be selected. Additionally, the user interface is configured to receive user input regarding a treatment goal 106 in the patient and to receive user input regarding a treatment technique 107 . This selection can automatically determine one or more parameters for the following workflow. These parameters may be, for example, what structures are to be outlined, eg for treatment and / or organs at risk, what margins are to be used and / or what dose constraints should be used. Alternatively, these one or more of these parameters are specified in user interface 108 by said user. Likewise, the medical product may automatically infer some of these parameters based on patient information such as, for example, tumor stage, number and / or location of positive biopsy cores, tumor-specific markers, ...

Abstract

It is an object of the invention to improve the radiotherapy workflow. This object is achieved by a medical product configured to be used for image based radiotherapy planning. The medical product isconfigured to be connected to: - a medical imaging system configured for acquiring medical images of a patient; - a contour module configured for segmenting one or more contours based on one or more of the medical images and; - a treatment planning system configured for calculating a radiotherapy plan based on the one or more contours. The medical product comprises a user interface configured to receive user input on a treatment target in the patient and to receive user input on a treatment technique. The medical product is configured to execute a data object readable to the medical imaging system, the contour module and the treatment planning system on the basis of the user input and wherein the data object comprises computer readable instructions for these systems and modules and whereinthe systems and modules are configured to contribute to the creation of the radiotherapy plan based on the user input.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical systems and products, and more particularly, the present invention relates to the field of radiation therapy. Background technique [0002] The current radiation therapy workflow is a time intensive workflow. After the patient has been diagnosed with cancer and it has been decided that radiation therapy is the treatment of choice, one or more medical images will be acquired from the patient. These medical images will be used to determine the location of treatment targets (tumors) and organs at risk within the patient. Once all medical images have been acquired, the treatment target and the organs at risk will be delineated within the medical images. The most widely used medical images for this purpose are computed tomography (CT) images. However, magnetic resonance images (MRI) or positron emission tomography (PET) images may have added value, especially for delineating treatment targets. In som...
