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 precision can be achieved without the need of positioning patients in stereotactic whole body frames. The total cost of treatments with the Gold Anchor technique is less […]
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
Summary: Gold Anchors were implanted percutaneously via the trans-thoracic route in lung in 80 patients for CyberKnife treatments at the Hartmann Radiotherapy Institute in France. This led to 9 cases (11%) of pneumothorax, out of which 2 cases (2.5%) required a drain. All implanted fiducials were effectively tracked by CyberKnife. Article in Radiation Oncology, 2019
Objectives: To evaluate intrafractional fiducial marker position variations during stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in patients treated for liver metastases in visually guided, voluntary deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH). Comment on methods: 10 patients with implanted fiducial markers were studied. Three DIBH CTs were acquired for treatment planning. Pre- and post-treatment CBCTs were acquired for each of […]
“Hepatocellular carcinoma effective stereotactic body radiotherapy using Gold Anchor and the Synchrony system: Two case reports and review of literature” Background: Radiotherapy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is considered to have limited efficacy because of treatment intensity considering that the irradiated area includes the liver, which is highly radiosensitive. In this report, we present two cases […]
