Universal Fiducial Markers for Multi-Modal Radiotherapy

This study demonstrates the feasibility of redesigning fiducial markers to maintain a large diameter for reliable imaging visibility and trackability while minimizing proton beam perturbation by increasing the coil gap. Adopting a universal fiducial marker design has the potential to streamline clinical workflows and support seamless integration across various radiotherapy modalities.

Abstract

This study demonstrates the feasibility of redesigning fiducial markers to maintain a large diameter for reliable imaging visibility and trackability while minimizing proton beam perturbation by increasing the coil gap. Adopting a universal fiducial marker design has the potential to streamline clinical workflows and support seamless integration across various radiotherapy modalities.
