Why is IGRT used in radiotherapy? Answer - - highly conformal dose
distribution with IMRT and VMAT/RapidArc. Therefore, the risk of
undertreating PTV or overtreating OARs
- treatment margins reduced to allow dose escalation and the reduction in
toxicity
- daily anatomical changes (bladder, prostate, lungs
- Weight gain and loss
- allow for an increase in dose prescription to tumour, decrease morbidity,
increase probability of tumour control and decrease treatment volumes
