Prediction-Based Compensation for Gate On/Off Latency during Respiratory-Gated Radiotherapy

During respiratory-gated radiotherapy (RGRT), gate on and off latencies cause deviations of gating windows, possibly leading to delivery of low- and high-dose radiations to tumors and normal tissues, respectively. Currently, there are no RGRT systems that have definite tools to compensate for the de...
