2D vs 3D setup
Varian users use more frequently 2D planar
setup correction as opposed to Elekta users
Why?
– Speed
– Ease of use
– Tradition?
Does it make a difference?
2D vs 3D setup correction
Li et al 2008
– 21 pts, 98 images
– 3 methods of registration:
CBCT, automated match
(LR and AP) Planar, automated match
(LR and AP) Planar, manual match
