Description
Pelvic lymph nodes move independently to the prostate. When delivering radiotherapy to prostate and pelvic lymph nodes, daily inter- and intra-fraction anatomical changes need to be accounted for. Planning target volume (PTV) margins, grown from the pelvic lymph node clinical target volume need to be determined, to account for this variation in position.
