Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) in gastrointestinal tumors.
CONTEXT Daily setup errors and changes in body habitus during external beam radiotherapy can result in interfraction variation, contributing to uncertainties in treatment delivery. The conventional method of patient positioning using external skin markings is inadequate in reducing these interfraction variations. OBJECTIVE To evaluate use of on-board imaging with daily kV-kV image matching to...

متن کاملImage Guided Radiation Therapy
With increasing emphasis on reducing the volume of radiation therapy fields while maintaining or improving precision of treatment and reducing radiation-related normal tissue toxicity, treatment position verification and correction before delivering radiotherapy had gained major importance. A variety of techniques have been developed that can accomplish this goal with aplomb, albeit each with i...
