Abstract
Purpose/Objective: Little is known about the intrafractional movement of cervix and uterus in women with cervix cancer during radiotherapy (RT). This is potentially important when considering intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) treatment plans with narrow margins, high dose gradients and extended fraction delivery times, where the potential to underdose tumors because of internal organ movement is amplified. In this study, movement of uterus and cervix over time was measured in women with cervix cancer using serial MRI scans and POI analysis.
