The recent advances in 3D medical imaging are the basis to develop a new generation of computer assisted tools for radiotherapy planning. The precise extraction of therapy relevant information from 3D images, 3D display of anatomical structures, more accurate placement of beams and the calculation and display of dose disributions in three dimensions are expected to contribute to enhanced local control of tumours and to help to reduce side effects. The paper reports the current state of the art in radiotherapy planning and gives recommendations for future research.
