Influence of Couch Tracking Motion

NCT02820532 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 100

Last updated 2018-05-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Tumor motion increases the uncertainty in Radiation Oncology. Couch tracking can compensate for this uncertainty. However it is not known if the couch motion influences the respiratory pattern of the patients. This will be evaluated in this study on healthy volunteers.

Conditions

  • Respiratory Amplitude

Interventions

DEVICE

Protura Treatment table

The treatment couch will be moved according to the respiratory motion of the patient. As a reference first the respiration will be measured without couch motion, than the couch will be switched on and we will evaluate if the respiration changes due to the motion of the couch. This procedure will be repeated once.
