Usefulness of Iron-Containing Fiducial Marker for Prostate Radiotherapy
Abstract: Visualization of markers is critical for imaging modalities such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, the size of the marker varies according to the ima...
Read moreAssessment of the feasibility and complications of implanting “Gold Anchor 25 G” fiducial markers by transparietal puncture under scanner before Cyberknife radiotherapy of lung nodules
Summary: This is the largest series reporting the feasibility and complications of the use of the Gold Anchor 25G system for percutaneous puncture in the lung. This is a quick procedure, performed und...
Read moreVisibility and artifacts of gold fiducial markers used for IGRT of pancreatic cancer on MRI
Summary: The authors selected ten different markers suitable for endoscopic placement in the pancreas and tested the visibility and artifacts of these markers on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). They...
Read moreEstablishing adequately visible endoscopically implantable gold markers for CT, cone-beam CT and MRI
Summary: Users interested in seeing the markers for CT-MRI registration purposes should use 0.28×10 mm Gold Anchor markers. Poster at ESTRO 2014...
Read moreCyberKnife Markers Visible on CT and MRI
Conclusion: We describe the use of the Gold Anchor fiducial markers in this poster. They have the advantage that a small amount of ferromagnetic material is mixed in the gold alloy to allow better vis...
Read moreInvestigation of dosimetric effects of radiopaque fiducial markers for use in proton beam therapy with film measurements and Monte Carlo simulations
Summary: The purpose was to estimate the dose perturbation introduced by implanted radiopaque fiducial markers in proton beam therapy (PBT) and to compare cylindrical 1.2 x 3.0 mm and 0.6 x 4.0 mm gol...
Read moreSpatial Accuracy and Visibility Studies of a MRI Compatible Gold Anchor™ Fine Needle Fiducial Marker
Conclusion: The new MRI compatible Gold Anchor™ adds new features on top of the existing advantages. For specific anatomical targets treatment planning with fiducial marker information can be performe...
Read moreAssessment of stability of Gold Anchor™ fiducial marker implants in the prostate
Conclusion: The position of the Gold Anchor™ fiducial marker in the prostate gland is stable, the marker remaining within the gland volume. The period of marker stabilization is less than the 7 days r...
Read moreComparison of the SBRT frame procedure versus Gold Anchor fiducial marker IGRT on Accuracy, Precision and Economy
Conclusion: Positioning of the target with orthogonal images or CBCT with the Gold Anchor fiducial marker insertion is intuitive and easily accomplished for safe positioning. Excellent accuracy and pr...
Read moreUsing Foldable Gold Anchor Markers for Fiducial Tracking with the CyberKnife
Conclusion: It is feasible to use gold anchor marker for Cyberknife. Ball shape or Tadpole gold anchor markers are recommended. Visual confirmation of lock-on is important due to the irregular shape o...
