Breath‐holding treatments in tomotherapy with active breathing coordinator: A first case report

We have shown that BH treatment is feasible using an upgraded tomotherapy machine (Radixact v3.5) with Active Breathing Coordinator. Our proposed workflow includes an in-house visual system that allows patients to visualize their breathing patterns on-screen. This technique provides a practical solution for patients with thoracic and abdominal malignancies, addressing respiratory motion while minimizing radiation exposure for certain diseases.

Abstract

We have shown that BH treatment is feasible using an upgraded tomotherapy machine (Radixact v3.5) with Active Breathing Coordinator. Our proposed workflow includes an in-house visual system that allows patients to visualize their breathing patterns on-screen. This technique provides a practical solution for patients with thoracic and abdominal malignancies, addressing respiratory motion while minimizing radiation exposure for certain diseases.
