Multimodality Image Registration for Radiation Oncology-III
Summary
The MMRO profile defines the information necessary for the exchange of image registrations between treatment planning systems in radiation oncology. It requires that these systems support CT, PET, and MRI imaging as a minimum standard of performance. The profile describes the information required for image registration, contouring and display using multiple image series, and the display of the resultant dose calculation on the different image modalities.
Benefits
The MMRO-II profile provides a consistent interpretation of spatial registration information to allow image registrations to be reliably transferred between systems. In this profile, some of the limitations from MMRO-II (e.g. restricting the primary data set to a CT scan) are removed and more flexibility is allowed for planning and pre-planning use cases.
Details
Systems Affected
- Contouring Systems that use anatomical input from multiple 3D imaging modalities to define targets or organ of interest."
- Treatment Planning Systems (TPS) that import and/or create contours from multiple 3D imaging modalities.
- 3D Dose review systems that import and display contours and/or dose on multiple 3D imaging modalities.
