Reproducible patient positioning is important in radiotherapy (RT) of head-and-neck cancer. We therefore compared set-up errors in head-and-neck RT resulting from three different patient positioning systems. Patients were either treated with a standa

Main research question: The correct positioning of the head and neck is essential during electrical wheelchair use. Therefore, proper head support is important for persons with impaired head stabilization and/or positioning. Existing systems often pr
