Abstract
Frameless SBRT can be safely administered using 4D-CBCT guidance. Even with considerable breathing motion, the PTV margins can safely be kept small, allowing patients with larger tumors to benefit from the advantages of SBRT. In case bony anatomy would be used as a surrogate for tumor position, considerably larger PTV margins would be required.
