Geometrical analysis for motion monitoring of rigid bodies with optical surface scanning in radiation oncology
Background and purpose: Surface guided radiotherapy can be used to improve patient setup and for accurate intra-fraction motion monitoring in correspondence to the isocenter. For a clinical relevant motion analysis the actual displacement of the entire clinical target volume (CTV) is necessary. Ther...
