Does deformation of immobilization devices impact treatment accuracy in thoracic cancer radiotherapy?
The conformity of immobilization devices in simulation CT exhibits a stronger correlation with setup accuracy than the deformation of these devices in intra-fraction FBCT. FBCT is recommended for improving treatment precision through dosimetric assessment and planning adjustments.
