A noninvasive eye fixation monitoring system for CyberKnife radiotherapy of choroidal and orbital tumors
- Department of Radiation Oncology, University of California-San Francisco, 1600 Divisadero Street, San Francisco, California 94143 (United States)
A new noninvasive monitoring system for fixing the eye has been developed to treat orbital and choroidal tumors with CyberKnife-based radiotherapy. This device monitors the eye during CT/MRI scanning and during treatment. The results of this study demonstrate the feasibility of the fixation light system for CyberKnife-based treatments of orbital and choroidal tumors and supports the idea that larger choroidal melanomas and choroidal metastases could be treated with CyberKnife without implanting fiducial markers.
