Abstract

Amy Brown investigated motion monitoring in radiation therapy, a primary treatment for prostrate cancer. She investigated clinical and patient-reported outcomes with reduced margins afforded by motion monitoring; patient perceptions and preferences for motion monitoring, and identified future preference research areas. This research has led to practice change at Townsville Cancer Centre.
