Core Tip Robotic radiosurgery can employ different systems for the localization of the neoplastic targets to treat. The purpose of this study is to assess how the application of different types of markers affects the tracking accuracy of CyberKnife’s. Fifteen patients have been recruited and analyzed for the study and two types of markers were used for the procedure. The computed tomography (CT) visualization of grain markers was better than anchor markers P = 5 × 10-9. Grain markers presented minor late complications of P = 3 × 10-6, and the best CT threshold number. The study revealed that the Gold Anchor fiducial marker is correlated with a greater number of late minor complication.
