Surface-guided radiation therapy for breast cancer: more precise positioning

CONCLUSIONS: SGRT improves patient positioning accuracy compared to skin markers. Optimal breast SGRT can accurately verify the localisation of the tumour bed, ensuring matching with ≥ 3 surgical clips. SGRT can eliminate unwanted radiation from IGRT verification systems.PMID:33840013 | DOI:10.1007/s12094-021-02617-6
