Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Positional stability of BioXmark liquid fiducial markers during the treatment course

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secundary studyparameters/endpoints * Visibility/visual stability of BioXmark liquid fiducial markers during the treatment course * Percentage of markers lost from injection to CT acquisition for RT planning * Percentage of markers lost during RT * Safety of BioXmark liquid fiducial marker placement * Inter-observer variation in gross tumor volume (GTV) localization with and without markers * Effect of BioXmark liquid fiducial markers on post-treatment MRI images * Potential BioXmark induced alterations in the surgical specimen Exploratory study parameters/endpoints: * Inter-fraction tumor movement * Intra-fraction tumor movement * Planning target volume (PTV) margins for rectal tumors, i.e. margins which account for set-up and organ motion * To develop a simultaneously integrated boost (SIB) technique for tumor boosting in rectal cancer * To determine the potential use of BioXmark liquid fiducial markers for automatic online matching * To verify the effect of BioXmark liquid fiducial markers on Radiomics analysis of CT, Cone-beam and MRI images * To explore the evolution of Radiomics features of the volume between the fiducials on cone beam CT
