Adoption of new IGRT techniques should be based on clinical
rationale/evidence and clinical needs:
•
What is the clinical evidence for the claims
➢
It is better/lower cost than current standard
➢
It can tackle a currently unsolvable clinical problem
➢
It is any purported benefit
•
What is the clinical indication
•
What are the limitations/risks
•
Do we have resources and demand
•
CLAIM IS NOT EVIDENCE!!
