The TRE is the vector difference between the
target as aligned by method a,b,c… and ground
truth.
Ground truth: defined by clips (DRRs, Planning

Question
„
„
„
If the intrinsic accuracy of surface based
alignment is <0.5mm (as shown in precision
phantom experiments), then why are patient
TRE’s on the order of 3mm?
(TRE of IRIS radiographic clip alignment is
about 2mm)
Deformation? Respiration? Other effects?

Why surface imaging if we have
ground truth by clips?

„
„
„
„
Faster –guide to optimal position, verify as
needed
Reduce radiation in comparison to radiographs
Surveillance during Rx
Not every machine has conebeam CT or OBI
