Assessing treatment accuracy of image-guided liver stereotactic body radiotherapy: a quantitative analysis based on 4D CT through post-therapeutic MRI-morphologic alterations
In this <i>in vivo</i> accuracy evaluation, conformity metrics such as the DSC and CIMI were more robust than HD, MDA, and 3D-CoMD. Therefore, DSC and CIMI could be a potential predictor for PFS within CTV. However, motion amplitude could not affect the DSC and CIMI. Therefore, a quality assurance procedure in dose delivery should be applied for the ITV strategy based on 4D CT.
