Abstract:The aim of this study was to evaluate a calcium phosphate cement (CPC) marker as an injectable nonmetallic fiducial marker. We investigated interfraction cervical motion with cone beam CT (CBCT) images using a CPC marker and marker visibility on T2-weighted MRI for cervical cancer patients. Materials/Methods: Our commercially available CPC, widely used as a bone substitute, was prepared by mixing a powder component and liquid. A volume of 0.1-0.2 cc of the paste was injected by a disposable syringe with a 19-g… Show more
