Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This pilot study aims to monitor early tumour response based on \[18F\]FLT-PET/MRI scans and to determine the feasibility of personalised radiotherapy to spare active bone marrow areas identified by \[18F\]FLT-PET/MRI. Bone marrow within the pelvis will be outlined by employing 18FLT PET to identify active BM within bony structures. Subsequently, treatment plans with various conformal radiotherapy techniques will be generated with different optimization approaches toward bone marrow while ensuring adequate tumor coverage. Dosimetric comparison amongst plans will be carried out.
