Abstract

The conclusions of the Working Group on Surface Guided Radiotherapy, promoted by the Spanish Society of Medical Physics, are presented. The objectives include procedures for the acceptance testing and commissioning of positioning, monitoring, and tracking devices based on the recognition of the patient's surface. Guidelines for the acquisition and installation of this equipment, as well as recommendations for a reliable clinical use are also established.

The field of study has been delimited to commercial programs and devices, analyzing the advantages and limitations of these techniques for different applications in Radiotherapy. Based on the available bibliography, and on the experience of national centers with the implementation of the SGRT, tolerances and periodicities have been established for the quality control tests proposed herein. Additionally, guidelines have been developed for the implementation of special techniques that pose these devices to their limit of accuracy.

Finally, three annexes have been included with practical steps for the evaluation and analysis of latencies, the construction of quality control phantoms for their measurement, as well as the clinical implications regarding the presence of latencies to the treatment of lesions under respiratory movement conditions.
