Upright patient positioning for gantry-free breast radiotherapy: feasibility tests using a robotic chair and specialised bras
For external beam radiotherapy using photons or particles, upright patient positioning on a rotating, robotic chair (a gantry-less system) could offer substantial cost savings. In this study, we considered the feasibility of upright breast radiotherapy using a robotic radiotherapy chair, for (i) a c...
