Conclusion
Planar imaging is widely available, and provides an
excellent set-up/monitoring strategy when a match on
markers or bony anatomy is possible/desired
It is an interesting option for intrafraction monitoring
It has clear advantage in terms of speed (especially
stereoscopic systems) and, possibly, dose
Don’t throw away your MV imager just yet: potential for
”beam’s eye view” and as a dosimetry tool
Trend towards increasing use of volumetric imaging
