Abstract:
In-room radiography is not a new concept for image-guided radiation therapy. Rapid advances in technology, however, have made this positioning method convenient, and thus radiograph-based positioning has propagated widely. The paradigms for quality assurance of radiograph-based positioning include imager performance, systems integration, infrastructure, procedure documentation and testing, and support for positioning strategy implementation.
