background: since tumors located in thorax region of body mainly move due to respiration, in the modern radiotherapy, there have been many attempts such as; external markers, strain gage and spirometer represent for monitoring patients’ breathing signal. with the advent of fluoroscopy technique, indirect methods were proposed as an alternative approach to extract patients’ breathing signals. ma...
The accuracy of external beam radiotherapy has improved rapidly in recent years with the advancement of technology. New modalities like three‐dimensional (3D) conformal radiotherapy, IMRT (intensity modulated radiotherapy) based on multi‐leaf collimator (MLC) and Tomotherapy technology for cancer treatments have been adopted in radiotherapy centers. In many developing countries like India these...
