Lung stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is associated with sources of geometric uncertainties, such as respiratory motion, daily anatomical variations (anatomical baseline shifts between daily and planned position) and the simultaneous movement between the tumor and the multileaf collimator (the so-called interplay effect) during treatment delivery. In this work, several methodologies have been implemented based on deformable image registration to quantify the dosimetric impact of those geometric uncertainties in lung SBRT. These methodologies revealed two main conclusions: First, daily anatomical deviations in patient anatomy generally had a larger dosimetric impact than respiratory motion. Second, the impact of interplay effe...
