Comparative analysis of image guidance in two institutions for prostate cancer patients

Abstract: The R3 reference scheme effectively reduced systematic and random errors. Larger margins in the anterio-posterior direction should be used during prostate treatment on the tomotherapy unit, as coarse imaging mode is chosen in order to reduce imaging time and dose.

“…Therefore, the possibility of merging the “Supine” and “Prone” groups for these protocols was confirmed by the analysis of the normality (Shapiro-Wilk test). The homogeneity of the variance (F-test) and similarity of the central tendency (two-tailed t-Student test for independent samples) were performed according to the recipe presented by us in a previous study ( 31 ).…”

“…Operacja ta realizowana jest przed podaniem dawki frakcyjnej przy użyciu dedykowanego oprogramowania komputerowego zainstalowanego na stacjach komputerowych w sterowni aparatu terapeutycznego. Uzyskane w ten sposób wartości przesunięć obrazu MVCT względem obrazu kVCT wykorzystywane są podczas pozycjonowania pacjenta, tak aby uzyskać jak największą zgodność pomiędzy aktualną pozycją pacjenta na aparacie terapeutycznym a pozycją, w której był on ułożony podczas obrazowania kVCT (obrazy na podstawie których utworzono plan leczenia) [5,6].…”

“…It is being used routinely in radiotherapy centres to evaluate and correct interfractional patient setup errors and internal organ motion. [1][2][3][4][5] In the past, orthogonal mega voltage (MV) portal images were acquired to verify patient positioning with respect to the treatment beam. Using portal images limits the visualisation only to bony structures.…”
