An image fusion method for medical applications, comprising: a.
acquiring a first image with a planned radiation region; b. acquiring a
second image with actual radiation region; c. determining if user defined
landmarks have been placed on the first and second images, if user
defined landmarks are present go to step (d), if not go to step (e); d.
pre-transforming the first image or second image or both images; e.
performing a first delineation step on the actual radiation region; f.
determining if the delineation is correct, if yes go to step (g), if not
go to step (h); g. fusing the first and second image and exit process;
and h. selecting multiple contour points around the actual radiation
region in the second image; i. performing a second delineation step on
the actual radiation region and go to step (f).
