Capturing 3D patient features for rapid prototyping in radiotherapy prior to simulation

ConclusionWe present a new workflow that combines current known methods of both rapidly scanning a patient ’s surface and the subsequent rapid creation of bolus that then increases bolus conformity, improves comfort and the patient experience, reduces simulation time, and may decrease exposure to radiation.
