ABSTRACT
The ability to visualise cancer with imaging has been crucial to the evolution of modern radiotherapy (RT) planning and delivery. And as evolving RT technologies deliver increasingly precise treatment, the importance of accurate identification and delineation of disease assumes ever greater significance. However, innovation in imaging technology has matched that seen with RT delivery platforms, and novel imaging techniques are a focus of much research activity. How these imaging modalities may alter and improve the diagnosis and staging of cancer is an important question, but already well served by the literature. What is less clear is how novel imaging techniques may influence and improve practical and technical aspects of RT planning and delivery. In this review, current gold standard approaches to integration of imaging, and potential future applications of bleeding-edge imaging technology into RT planning pathways are explored.
