The deviations generated in the translational and rotational coordinates were given in terms of the mean values and their respective standard deviations. The random and systematic errors were determined through the Stroom and Wang relation and 36 patients treated with intracranial hypofractionated radiosurgery from August 2015 to October 2016 were evaluated. The prescribed dose was 25-30 Gy in 5 fractions for 30 patients and 12-18 Gy in a single fraction for 6 patients. A 1.3 mm margin was found for the planning target volume (PTV) from the deviations analyzed, wich is consistent with that adopted by the institution. Correlation between the displacement vector, volume of the PTV and its respective loss of coverage was evaluated. Smaller volumes of PTV tend to suffer greater coverage losses when the isocenters were shifted. From the results, we suggest that for margins greater than 1 mm are recquired with PTV volume smaller than 2.6 cm3 , in order to guarantee the expected coverage of the target. 2019 artículo científico 2319-0612 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=722280831007 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=7222 Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Proteção Radiológica - SBPR Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.7
