ABSTRACT
â¢Modern IGRT has given new insight regarding organ motion in radiotherapy.â¢Rectal volume variation may increase the risk of biochemical and local failure.â¢Rectal volume decreased significantly during eight weeks of radiotherapy.â¢The percentage of irradiated rectal volume did not change statistically significant.â¢Our study shows that IGRT ensures a close to stable dose to the rectum.
