	CT planning is a fundamental process in radiation therapy that uses computed tomography (CT) scans to create a detailed map of a patient's anatomy for precise treatment planning. During this procedure, a CT scanner takes cross-sectional images of the body, which are then used to construct a 3D model of the ~~tumor~~ and surrounding tissues. This model helps radiation oncologists and medical physicists design an accurate radiation treatment plan, ensuring that the highest dose of radiation is delivered to the ~~tumor~~ while minimizing exposure to healthy tissues. CT planning allows for careful consideration of ~~tumor~~ size, shape, and location, as well as any anatomical changes during treatment. This method is crucial for optimizing the effectiveness of radiation therapy, enhancing precision, and reducing side effects, ultimately aiming for better treatment outcomes and patient safety.
