Evaluation of the influence of susceptibility-induced magnetic field distortions on the precision of contouring intracranial organs at risk for stereotactic radiosurgery

Evaluation of the influence of susceptibility-induced magnetic field distortions on the precision of contouring intracranial organs at risk for stereotactic radiosurgery

Background and purpose: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a crucial factor in optimal treatment planning for stereotactic radiosurgery. To further the awareness of possible errors in MRI, this work aimed to investigate the magnitude of susceptibility induced MRI distortions for intracranial organs...
