Abstract

Advanced CBCT systems can replace separate CT scans for offline adaptive radiotherapy (RT) but require higher investments costs compared to conventional CBCT systems. Therefore, a vendor-independent cost-benefit analysis was conducted, presenting the number of offline adaptive RT fractions required to offset the additional ownership costs of advanced CBCT systems.
