Details and patient eligibility

About

When we acquired MR images of the prostate gland using a coil (receiver antenna) inside the rectum, we can see areas with tumour in the prostate gland, and well as details of the anatomy. The coil inside the rectum changes the shape of the prostate gland. In order to use this images to help target radiation therapy to the tumour better, we need to deform the images to the original shape of the prostate gland without the coil. In this study, we will develop a way to deform the images accurately.
