Verifying 4D gated radiotherapy using time-integrated electronic portal imaging: a phantom and clinical study

BACKGROUND: Respiration-gated radiotherapy (RGRT) can decrease treatment toxicity by allowing for smaller treatment volumes for mobile tumors. RGRT is commonly performed using external surrogates of tumor motion. We describe the use of time-integrated electronic portal imaging (TI-EPI) to verify the...
