Highlights
The patterns of practice for adaptive radiotherapy were evaluated for 177 centres.
Over half performed ad-hoc adaption but less than a third used specific protocols.
CBCT was the main imaging modality in general but MR was used for daily replanning.
2/3 centres wished to implement ART; 40% of them had plans to do it within 2 years.
The main barriers were human/material resources and technical limitations.
Highlights
Real-time respiratory motion management (RRMM) practice, evaluated for 200 centres.
Sixty-eight percent of respondents used RRMM for at least one tumour site.
Across all tumour sites, external marker was the main RRMM signal used.
Overall 71% of respondents wished to implement RRMM for a new treatment site.
The main barriers were human/financial resources and capacity on the machine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
