Patient setup variation on Elekta Unity and its impact on adaptive planning
Significant PSVs were observed on Elekta Unity due to suboptimal patient immobilization. Using prostate and pancreas treatments as examples, we demonstrated that adaptive planning can effectively accommodate such PSVs. Nevertheless, efforts should be made to minimize PSVs-particularly rotations-to mitigate intra-fraction motion and reduce treatment time.
