Highlights
- •Anatomy matching based target localization is problematic due to organ deformation.
- •A new method is proposed to align the target with the prescription-isodose surface.
- •Detailed analyses were based on in-room CT images before and post IMRT treatments.
- •The method can improve localization accuracy and critical structure sparing greatly.
