Fig. 5

Cases for discussion of strengths and limitations of method: a The GTV (green) and STAPLE CTV (red) for an acetabular metastasis. The cyan vectors in the inferior direction, indicating a potential route of intraosseous tumor spread, show variation in length, which is accounted for by the proposed algorithm. b The GTV (green) and STAPLE CTV (red) for a metastasis in the iliac crest (same as Fig. 3), with the cyan vectors indicating a potential direction of intraosseous extension. Some of the vectors lie outside of the bone
