simulation, first and last fractions cine, and when the patient breath freely in the simulation cine. FB patients GTV motion was compared with the one measured in DIP for DIBH patients (Figure). Moreover, the position of 8 points on the GTV delineation and their relative motion have been calculated to verify the stability of the tracking algorithm. Homolateral lung and GTV volume have been also considered, together with maximum range of hepatic dome during the respiratory phase to further evaluate possible correlation with GTV motion. Results From ViewRay TPS 46 MR cine have been exported and a total of more than 8 hour and 29000 frames have been analyzed. GTV contour centroid shows a standard deviation of less than 2.2 mm in both directions during the DIP of DIBH patients. No differences due to patient training between the first and last fraction was observed (Figure). For FB patients, GTV motion ranges from 0.4 mm to 1.7 mm in the antero-posterior and cranio-caudal direction (Table); GTV motion during the treatment have been always in agreement with the one measured during the simulation (Figure). The analysis of the relative motion of the 8 points on the GTV shows that motion measurements are not affected by tracking algorithm. No correlations have been observed between GTV motion, lung and GTV volumes and hepatic dome excursion.

Conclusion Simulation MR cine allows to select lung patients that can be treated in FB gating technique. When GTV contour centroid shows a standard deviation of less than 2mm, target motion will be the same as for a DIBH treatment. Future studies will investigate the dosimetric effect for margin reduction in FB patients, and motion in other lung districts.
