2D kV orthogonal imaging with fiducial markers is more precise for daily image guided alignments than soft-tissue cone beam computed tomography for prostate radiation therapy

Purpose: The hypothesis is that 2-dimensional kV orthogonal imaging with fiducial markers (kV-FM) and soft-tissue cone beam computed tomography (ST-CBCT) are equally reproducible for daily positional alignments for image guided (IG) intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for prostate cancer.
