High frequency percussive ventilation for respiratory immobilization in radiotherapy
High frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) employs high frequency low tidal volumes (100–400 bursts/min) to provide respiration in awake patients while simultaneously reducing respiratory motion. The purpose of this study is to evaluate HFPV as a technique for respiratory motion immobilization in...
