Faster and more accurate patient positioning with surface guided radiotherapy for ultra-hypofractionated prostate cancer patients
Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate if surface guided radiotherapy (SGRT) can decrease patient positioning time for localized prostate cancer patients compared to the conventional 3-point localization setup method. The patient setup accuracy was also compared between the two setup me...
