Popis: This work investigates the use of a multi-2D cine magnetic resonance imaging-based comprehensive motion monitoring (CMM) system for the assessment of prostate intrafraction 3D drifts. The data of six healthy volunteers were analyzed and the values of a clinically-relevant registration quality factor metric exported by CMM were presented. Additionally, the CMM-derived prostate motion was compared to a 3D-based reference and the 2D-3D tracking agreement was reported. Due to the low quality of SI motion tracking (often >2 mm tracking mismatch between anatomical planes) we conclude that further improvements are desirable prior to clinical introduction of CMM for prostate drift corrections.
