Abstract:Purpose
To investigate the feasibility of a thermo-optical surface imaging (SGRT) system combined with room-based stereoscopic X‑ray image guidance (IGRT) in a dedicated breast deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) irradiation workflow. In this context, benchmarking of portal imaging (EPID) and cone-beam CT (CBCT) against stereoscopic X‑rays was performed.
Methods
SGRT + IGRT data of 30 left-sided DIBH breast patients (1 patient with bilateral cancer) treate… Show more
