Table 5. Six Degrees of Freedom Couch Shifts Based on Daily Image Guidance with CBCT and OSMS.

*Representative real-time delta shifts across non-coplanar treatment couch angles

OSMS = optical surface monitoring system; CBCT = cone beam CT; FSRT = fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy

  Mean Translational Shifts (mm) Mean Rotational Shifts (°)
  Vertical Longitudinal Lateral Pitch Roll Rotation
Localization CBCT 3.1 (1.7 to 5.4) 0.34 (-0.4 to 1.3) 1.0 (0.5 to 1.5) 0.4 (0.1 to 0.7) 0.1 (0 to 0.2) -0.1 (-0.3 to 0.2)
Setup OSMS 5.4 -0.40 0.96 0.07 -0.08 0.18
Verification CBCT 0 0.15 -0.3 0.05 0.05 0
Intrafraction OSMS* 0.30 -0.29 0.02 0 -0.01 0.07
Post-FSRT CBCT -0.2 0.85 -0.25 0.2 0.05 0.15
