Subsequent kilovoltage imaging‐based fiducial triangulation for intra‐fractional prostate motion monitoring and correction

Our study showcases a promising subsequent kV-based triangulation method for intra-fractional prostate motion monitoring. Acquiring 3D motion information results in higher out-of-tolerance catch-rates particularly in the depth dimension of the kV images, which is perpendicular to the treatment beam. Failure to properly observe and catch these offsets would result in sub-optimal conformality and accuracy of the dose delivery.

Abstract

Our study showcases a promising subsequent kV-based triangulation method for intra-fractional prostate motion monitoring. Acquiring 3D motion information results in higher out-of-tolerance catch-rates particularly in the depth dimension of the kV images, which is perpendicular to the treatment beam. Failure to properly observe and catch these offsets would result in sub-optimal conformality and accuracy of the dose delivery.
