3D (CBCT)

Limitations

Collision

Field of view

Increased dose to contra lateral breast

CBCT not acquired at the isocentre to avoid collision

Then once matched the shift includes the offset from isocentre

position

Adds time and potential errors

Donovan et al. (2012) stipulate limitations on iso position to

account for this

Half bowtie filter (Varian OBI) increases FOV in longitudinal

direction
