Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of generations of CT image.It is returned more particularly to a kind of multivariable using multiple groups magnetic resonance image
Return the method for generating quasi- CT image.
Background technique
Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are two kinds of main imaging moulds for obtaining 3-D image
Formula.Computed tomography is conventionally used for the imaging pattern of creation radiotherapy treatment planning.CT image can be accurately
The geometry of target person is described, and the corresponding CT value of CT image can be directly changed into electron density for calculating target
The intracorporal Radiation dose distribution of person.However, CT image does not have good contrast for soft tissue, and CT also meets target person
By additional dose of radiation.Compared with CT image, magnetic resonance imaging mode also has extensively due to its excellent soft tissue contrast
General purposes.Magnetic resonance imaging is free of ionising radiation, and the functional informations such as metabolism that can provide target person.
At present magnetic resonance image be mainly used for supplement CT image to obtain more accurate anatomical structure profile and cancer target,
So needing for the magnetic resonance image of target person to be aligned with corresponding CT image.Since magnetic resonance image and CT image usually exist
It is obtained on different machines, therefore magnetic resonance image and CT image will not be aligned completely in overlapping;This is cancer target positioning
One important sources of error.Guided by magnetic resonance radiotherapy treatment planning utilizes magnetic resonance image without CT image, so swollen
Tumor targeting can be more acurrate.Since magnetic resonance intensity value cannot be converted directly into electron density, it is therefore desirable to there is method by magnetic resonance
Image is accurately converted to image corresponding with electron density value, i.e., quasi- CT image, also referred to as pCT image or derivative CT figure
Picture.
