Patent attributes
For delivering an image-guided radiation therapy treatment to a moving structure included in a region of a patient body a series of first images of the region of the patient body in different phases of a motion of the structure is acquired in accordance with a first imaging mode. The series of first images is associated with a series of second images of the patient body in essentially the same phases of the motion of the target structure, the second images being acquired in a second imaging mode. During the treatment, a third image is acquired using the second imaging mode during the radiation therapy treatment and a continuation of the radiation therapy treatment is planned on the basis of data relating to one of the first images selected on the basis of a comparison between the third image and the second images associated with the first images.
