Study of dose escalation protocols in prostate cancer radiation therapy with patient realignment by using internal fiducial markers
Use of internal fiducial markers and electronic portal imaging (EPID) to realign patients has been shown to significantly reduce positioning uncertainties in prostate radiation treatment. This creates the possibility of improving the treatment by decreasing the planning target volume (PTV) margin...
