Conclusions

• A range of IGRT equipment and techniques are available

however, the choice of which to use is dependent on the

frequency of imaging and the type of motion which is to

be measured.

• Superior image quality and greater soft tissue

information can be obtained by using 3D imaging and kV

x-ray.

• kV x-ray imaging, ultrasound, optical and

electromagnetic marker systems can be used to

measure intra-fraction motion.

• Optical techniques assume a correlation between

external features and internal organ motion.

• Increasing number of solutions aiming to use in-room

MR
