Intrafractional motion in stereotactic body radiotherapy of spinal metastases utilizing cone beam computed tomography image guidance

Background and purpose: Spine stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) requires a high degree of accuracy due to steep dose gradients close to the spinal cord. This study aimed to (1) evaluate intrafractional motion in spine SBRT utilizing flattening filter free (FFF) beam delivery and cone beam comput...
