Enhancing patient positioning accuracy: evaluating daily cone beam computed tomography in the halcyon system
Daily CBCT imaging in the Halcyon system significantly enhances patient positioning accuracy in radiotherapy. The findings demonstrate that this approach minimizes positional shifts, particularly in the Head and Neck region, essential for optimizing treatment outcomes and reducing the risk of adverse effects. Future studies should further explore the integration of advanced imaging techniques to improve precision in patient positioning.
