PURPOSE: To investigate dosimetric improvements with respect to tumor-dose conformity
and normal tissue sparing using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) compared with …

PURPOSE: To investigate the possibility of using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) to
reduce the irradiated volumes of the normal lung and other critical structures in the treatment …

Purpose: To quantify the dose escalation achievable in the treatment of non-small-cell lung
cancer (NSCLC) by allowing dose heterogeneity in the target volume or using intensity …

Purpose: Lungs are the major dose-limiting organ during radiotherapy (RT) for non–small-
cell lung cancer owing to the development of pneumonitis. This study compared intensity …

PURPOSE: To systematically evaluate four different techniques of radiation therapy (RT)
used to treat non–small-cell lung cancer and to determine their efficacy in meeting multiple …

Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is an advancement in radiotherapy that uses
intensity-modulated beams, which can provide multiple intensity levels for any single beam …

Purpose Local failure is a major obstacle to the cure of locally advanced non-small-cell lung
cancer. 3-Dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3-DCRT) selects optimal treatment …

Purpose Concerns have been raised about the potential for worse treatment outcomes
because of dosimetric inaccuracies related to tumor motion and increased toxicity caused by …

Radiotherapy plays an important role in the management of lung cancer, with over 50% of
patients receiving this modality at some point during their treatment. Intensity-modulated …

Purpose Improved local control of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) may be possible with
an increased dose of radiation. Three-dimensional radiation treatment planning (3D RTP) …
