Zusammenfassung

Detailed delineation of lymph node targets in multiple anatomical locations

Valuable aid in accurate image based radiation therapy treatment planning

Enhanced treatment outcome, based on delivery of adequate doses of irradiation to lymph nodes at risk

Decreased morbiditiy and better quality of life, by selectively irradiating outlined lymph nodes at risk
