A comparison of two methods for segmentation of functional volumes in radiotherapy planning of lung cancer patients.

CONCLUSION: The Q-SPECT and 4D-V methods do not segment entirely the same FL volumes. A reasonable overlap of the volumes along with the findings of other studies that both correlate to RP incidence, suggests that a combination of both volumes, e.g. using the IF, may be useful in RT treatment planning.
