Analysis of intra-fractional surface motion during adaptive radiation therapy and relation of internal vs. external position for prostate cancer
SGRT revealed a consistent vertical shift over the whole course of long-duration RT and not only for the first minutes of the treatment. Further, SGRT exclusively is not an adequate inter-fractional positioning tool for prostate cancer patients, however additional SGRT-based intra-fractional monitoring can add a value for long duration RT.
