Original knee fixation device as a useful fixation method during prostate intensity-modulated radiation therapy

Conclusions: The IMRT fixation method using an original KFD improved the residual rotational error in the three directions and the inter-fractional error in the A-P direction, reduced the interfractional margins in the A-P, and S-I directions and improved CTV coverage. Our original KFD may be a useful fixation method during prostate IMRT.
