6D Setup Reproducibility and Immobilization Capability of Frameless Stereotactic Mask System


Nadine Linthout from the Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussel discusses 6D setup reproducibility and the immobilization capability of frameless stereotactic mask systems. She begins by outlining how they used to achieve positioning accuracy through the use of earplugs fitted with lead beads that would appear in scans to align the patient. She goes on to discuss current immobilization systems and the advantages of 6D setup correction. She then delves into frame-based positioning and frameless positioning, giving clinical examples including results of patient positioning at her facility.
