We devised a laser projection system combined with a CT scanner and radiotherapy treatment planning computer (CT stimulator). The irradiation field can be projected over a range of 180 degrees on the skin of a patient lying on the CT couch. For CT-guided biopsy, the system can project the skin entry point and needle direction.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007834 Lasers An optical source that emits photons in a coherent beam. Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation (LASER) is brought about using devices that transform light of varying frequencies into a single intense, nearly nondivergent beam of monochromatic radiation. Lasers operate in the infrared, visible, ultraviolet, or X-ray regions of the spectrum.
