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: 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 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 …

Purpose: To evaluate if the use of inhomogeneous target-dose distributions, obtained by 3D
conformal radiotherapy plans with or without beam intensity modulation, offers the possibility …

Purpose Radiation therapy plays an essential role in the treatment of locally advanced lung
cancer, but it inevitably leads to incidental and unnecessary dose to critical organs …

Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility of dose escalation in stage III non-small cell lung cancer,
we compared standard coplanar (2D) with non-coplanar beam arrangements, without (3D) …

Conformal 3D radiotherapy (3D-CRT) combined with chemotherapy for inoperable non-
small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to the preferable high dose is often not achievable because …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the potential for dose escalation with intensity-modulated
radiotherapy (IMRT) in positron emission tomography-based radiotherapy planning for …

Local failure is the one of the most frequent cause of tumor related death in locally advanced
non-small cell lung cancer (LAD-NSCLC). Dose escalation has the promise of increased …
