Abstract 

The Sonarray ultrasound system is a non-invasive technique allowing real-time prostate localization. Since 2003, it has been used in our department before intensity modulated radiation therapy for prostate cancer. We reported both setup errors and organ motion detected by Sonarray system and the accuracy of this ultrasound imaging dedicated to radiotherapy.
