  • Abstract
    Magnetic induction hyperthermia has become an important tumor treatment method at present, and its treatment planning system is to help surgeons make a proper hyperthermia surgery scheme. So make a reasonable treatment planning workflow is of great significance. Based on DICOM standard and CT images, this paper designs and realizes a total workflow of magnetic induction hyperthermia treatment planning, including modules of communications with medical information systems, CT images processing and thermoseeds planning, etc. The results show that our work can largely promote the clinical applications of magnetic induction hyperthermia.
