Abstract

Recent years have seen a widespread proliferation of available in-room image guidance systems for radiation therapy target localization with many centers having multiple in-room options. In this session, available imaging systems for in-room IGRT will be reviewed highlighting the main differences in workflow efficiency, targeting accuracy and image quality as it relates to target visualization. Decision-making strategies for integrating these tools into clinical image guidance protocols that are tailored to specific disease sites like H&N, lung, pelvis, and spine SBRT will be discussed. Learning Objectives: 1. Major system characteristics of a wide range of available in-room imaging systems for IGRT. 2. Advantages / disadvantages of different systems for site-specific IGRT considerations. 3. Concepts of targeting accuracy and time efficiency in designing clinical imaging protocols.
