Fig. 1 Schematic overview of the first steps of our automatic selection method. The input images are the CT and CBCT scans. The output images contain mass density differences in three different regions of interest (tumour, mediastinum, lungs).

Fig. 3 (a) 3D scatterplot of non-candidates based on anatomical changes in one region of interest, for example the tumour region. TH1, TH2, TH3 represents the three thresholds that are applied for this region (i.e. 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5cm). ‘Non-typical’ non-candidates (e.g. patients with a breathing artefacts in learning set) are removed, (b) acceptance volume. New patient with a point outside this volume is assigned by the method as candidate for replanning.

Fig. 4 CT scan, CBCT scan and difference map of the tumour region for (a) non-candidate, (b) candidate. Window/level settings for the CT images and difference maps are equal to the ones shown in Fig. 1.

Fig. 5 CT scan, CBCT scan and difference map of the tumour region for (a) false negative, (b) false positives due to a change in breathing pattern. Window/level settings for the CT images and difference maps are equal to the ones shown in Fig. 1.
