Feasibility of Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy and Cone-Beam Computed Tomography for Head and Neck Carinomas: Analysis of Clinical Throughput and Patient Reported Outcomes.
Interventional
Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
Clinical efficiency for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) delivery
Prospective work-flow metrics describing clinical efficiency for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) delivery with and without cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) acquisition at the BCCA, generated from time requirements for treatment verification and delivery. The time spent by the patients at each stage of radiation therapy delivery will be recorded, including; time in radiation bunker, time in immobilization frame, kV or CBCT acquisition and online correction time, and beam on time
After patient treated
No
