What is Coregistration of 3D Laser Reconstructed Surface Markers and Anthropometric Patient Landmarks for use in Patient Alignment for Stereotactic Radiation Therapy about?
Materials/Methods: More than 600 treatment sessions were analyzed for each patient group. We first analyzed the overall 3D motion of the prostate, which is calculated as the absolute excursion of the prostate with respect to its initial position. The analysis was carried out by calculating the average percentage time that the prostate moves . 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 mm within 1 minute intervals over 6 minutes of treatment time. We further studied the prostate motion in the left-right, cranial-caudal, and anterior-posterior direction. A two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test is chosen to evaluate the pattern of the prostate motion . 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 mm for the non-ERB and ERB group. Results: Our results clearly state that the percentage time and the magnitude of the 3D prostate motion is higher for the non-ERB group compared to the ERB group, i.e., 6% vs. 0.4% of time that the prostate had motion of .5 mm for the non-balloon and balloon group, respectively. The prostate displacement for the non-ERB group is larger comparative to that of the balloon group at any time. Differences of the prostate motion between the non-and balloon group are found in the cranial-caudal (up to 5% tim
