RESUMO
We present the update of the recommendations of the French society of oncological radiotherapy on respiratory motion management for external radiotherapy treatment. Since twenty years and the report 62 of ICRU, motion management during the course of radiotherapy treatment has become an increasingly significant concern, particularly with the development of hypofractionated treatments under stereotactic conditions, using reduced safety margins. This article related orders of motion amplitudes for different organs as well as the definition of the margins in radiotherapy. An updated review of the various movement management strategies is presented as well as main technological solutions enabling them to be implemented: when acquiring anatomical data, during planning and when carrying out treatment. Finally, the management of these moving targets, such as it can be carried out in radiotherapy departments, will be detailed for a few concrete examples of localizations (abdominal, thoracic and hepatic).
