Evaluation of gold fiducial marker manual localisation for magnetic resonance-only prostate radiotherapy

Evaluation of gold fiducial marker manual localisation for magnetic resonance-only prostate radiotherapy

Abstract Background The use of intraprostatic gold fiducial markers (FMs) ensures highly accurate and precise image-guided radiation therapy for patients diagnosed with prostate cancer thanks to the ease of localising FMs on photon-based imaging, like Computed Tomography (CT) images. Recently, Magne...
