PURPOSE: Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) has the potential to shorten treatment
times for fluence modulated radiotherapy. We compared dose distributions of VMAT, step …

Introduction Radiotherapy for head and neck cancer (HNC) has evolved rapidly in the past
decades from conformal three‐dimensional technique (3D‐CRT) to intensity‐modulated …

AIMS: Volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) allows rapid delivery of radiotherapy. The
aim of this planning study was to evaluate VMAT and dynamic intensity-modulated …

To quantify clinical differences for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) versus intensity
modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in terms of dosimetric endpoints and planning and …

Background Compared to static beam Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT), the
main advantage of Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) is a shortened delivery time …

Background Several comparison studies have shown the capability of VMAT to achieve
similar or better plan quality as IMRT, while reducing the treatment time. The experience of …

Abstract Volumetric Intensity-Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) offers solutions to the time
consuming, higher monitor unit (MU) delivery of Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) …

Abstract Background Intensity Modulated Arc Therapy (IMAT) can be planned and delivered
via several techniques. Advanced Radiotherapy (ARTORL) is a prospective study that aims …

AIM: To prospectively compare volumetric intensity-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and
conventional intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in coverage of planning target …

BACKGROUND: The quality of Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) plans is highly
dependent on the performance of the optimization algorithm used. Recently new algorithms …
