Session

Overview: Summation of doses is required in several treatments of radiation oncology. The Symposium will give an overview for some of these namely combined treatment of brachytherapy and photons, the setting of re-irradiation, and adaptation. These speakers will each introduce the relevant issues, the current procedures in daily clinical practice incl. the main methods/tools in use. An overarching topic is deformable image registration software, which is needed in each case. Current advances, assessment of uncertainties and an outlook on registration approaches will wrap up the session.
