Development and validation of a software to evaluate breathing-induced prostate motion tracked with implanted electromagnetic transponders

Introduction null A system (Calypso, Varian Medical Systems) based on the localization of electromagnetic transponders (ELM-TRNs) permanently implanted in the prostate allows real-time tracking during radiotherapy treatments. null null null Purpose null Development and validation of a dedicated software for ELM-TRNs signal analysis to quantify the amplitude of the intra-fraction prostate motion induced by patient’s breathing, both in supine and...
