An overview of all radiation oncology target volume delineations on axial imaging. Each row represents the benchmarking cases: FET-PET11 case 1 (a), FET-PET1 case 2 (b), and FET-PET1 case 3 (c). Shown here are standard gross tumor volume MRI (GTVMR, red), clinical target volume MRI (CTVMR, green), planning target volume MRI (PTVMR, orange), and hybrid GTVMR+FET (blue), CTVMR+FET (purple), PTVMR+FET (yellow). For comparison, GTVMR and GTVMR+FET are shown together with contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging, T2/FLAIR, and FET-PET. All images are co-registered to each case; respective planning CT where TVMR and TVMR+FET are displayed separately. Figure courtesy of Nathaniel Barry et al and presented at RANZCR ASM 2023.
