摘要

In therapy with Synchrony® mounted on Radixact®, the fiducial marker (FM) and adrenal gland metastasis, which shift with respiratory phase, require margin compensation for high-dose prescriptions. Although compensation is critical, no studies have examined the margin to compensate for the respiratory phase shift. Therefore, we aimed to suggest the compensating margin for the FM and adrenal metastasis shift along with respiratory phase. We used images from four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT) taken twice and gated CT taken once before therapy initiation with available contour data for FM and adrenal gland metastasis in each image. The distance between the FM and the center of the gross tumor volume (GTV) in each image of a ten-set 4DCT was defined as the correlating association, and a relative cumulative frequency distribution was created based on it. The values of the margins compensating for respiratory displacement were obtained from the relative cumulative frequency distribution in the right–left/posterior–anterior/superior–inferior (S–I) directions. In cases wherein the FM was placed inside the GTV, the margin values decreased in the S–I direction.
