Abstract (en)
Abstract: Accuracy is one of the most important requirements for radiation therapy treatment delivery. Therefore, this work was aimed to evaluate dose planning risk associated with set-up errors arising during patient positioning. To evaluate the risks, the planning organ at the risk margins (PRV) was calculated and implemented. Results have shown that the use of PRV margin, on average, reduces doses delivered to the organs at risk by 1.69 - 3.08 Gy. Additionally, no significant decrease in plan quality was observed.
