Flipping Book

Cozzi et al. :

“Faster treatments could have a clinical impact on single patients in terms

of comfort on couch, immobility and

minimisation of internal organ’s

displacement

(e.g. bladder or rectum filling changes over time). This

could increase the daily treatment quality and

allows also more time for

imaging procedures within standard time slots

. In addition, faster

treatments have an impact on the system throughput allowing the

possibility to

treat more patients per day

, and to eventually

reduce waiting

list

for selected groups of patients.”
