Daily quality assurance, system and procedure-specific commissioning of a bore-based optical surface imaging system for surface-guided radiotherapy (SGRT). [PDF]

J Appl Clin Med Phys
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to commission the AlignRT inBore system in Ethos/Halcyon linear accelerator (Linac) systems for surface‐guided radiotherapy (SGRT), including developing a soft collision quality assurance (QA) to pass daily AlignRT QA without daily calibration, ensuring compatibility between SGRT and image‐guided radiotherapy (IGRT ...

IGRT in rectal cancer [PDF]

Acta Oncologica, 2008
To date, no great interest has been shown in the clinical implementation of recent Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) modalities in rectal cancer since only a few studies have been published on this issue. This may be explained by the fact that with current treatment modalities locoregional recurrences are already very low (around 10%).
