Abstract
Respiratory-induced tumour motion in the SI direction was significantly greater in lower lobe and lower pulmonary zone tumours compared with apical tumours. Tumour volume, T-stage and spirometry did not correlate with the magnitude or direction of respiratory-induced tumour motion. During curative radiotherapy in lung cancer, attention should be paid to motion management, especially for lower lobe tumours.
