“…In cases where uncertainties are presently too large, what roles will prospective imaging play, including proton CT (Schulte et al , 2004) and megavoltage photon CT (Langen et al , 2005; Newhauser et al , 2008a; De Marzi et al , 2013)? Similarly, what role will real-time or post-treatment imaging play, including prompt gamma imaging (Peterson et al , 2010; Gueth et al , 2013), positron emission tomography (Parodi et al , 2007; Cho et al , 2013; Min et al , 2013), proton radiography (Schneider and Pedroni, 1995), and magnetic resonance imaging (Krejcarek et al , 2007)?- In the future, what out-of-field dose algorithms should be developed for treatment planning systems used for research or routine clinical practice? Techniques for the calculation and measurement of therapeutic dose are reasonably well established (with a few exceptions mentioned below).
