CT and cone-beam CT of ablative radiation therapy for pancreatic cancer with expert organ-at-risk contours.

ABSTRACT: We describe a dataset from patients who received ablative radiation therapy for locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC), consisting of computed tomography (CT) and cone-beam CT (CBCT) images with physician-drawn organ-at-risk (OAR) contours. The image datasets (one CT for treatment planning and two CBCT scans at the time of treatment per patient) were collected from 40 patients. All scans were acquired with the patient in the treatment position and in a deep inspiration breath-hold state. Six radiation oncologists delineated the gastrointestinal OARs consisting of small bowel, stomach and duodenum, such that the same physician delineated all image sets belonging to the same patient. Two trained medical physicists further edited the contours to ensure adherence to delineation guidelines.
