在过去的十年中，在肿瘤成像、三维（3D）治疗计划和放射治疗递送方面取得了重大进展。目前，适形放射治疗的最大挑战之一是准确描绘肿瘤和靶体积。在确定肿瘤和靶点的过程中，医生会遇到许多不确定性，本文讨论了这些不确定性的来源，以及需要研究的问题，以减少这些不确定性。
In the past decade, significant progress has been made in the imaging of tumors, three dimensional (3D) treatment planning, and radiation treatment delivery. At this time one of the greatest challenges for conformal radiation therapy is the accurate delineation of tumor and target volumes. The physician encounters many uncertainties in the process of defining both tumor and target, The sources of these uncertainties are discussed, as well as the issues requiring study to reduce these uncertainties.
