Aim Comparisons of integral dose delivered to the treatment planning volume and to the
whole patient body during stereotactic, helical and intensity modulated radiotherapy of …

The advanced developments in external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) over the past few
decades have improved dose conformity to the target while minimizing dose to the …

Background: The radiobiological models describe the effects of the radiation treatment on
cancer and healthy cells, and the radiobiological effects are generally characterized by the …

Background Reproducibility of different immobilization systems, which may affect set-up
errors, remains uncertain. Immobilization systems and their corresponding set-up errors …

Introduction This study examines and compares the dosimetric quality of radiotherapy
treatment plans for prostate carcinoma across a cohort of 163 patients treated across five …

Whole pelvic radiotherapy (WPRT) can sterilize microscopic lymph node metastases in
treatment of prostate cancer. WPRT, compared to prostate only radiotherapy (PORT), is …

Background Metal artifacts caused by high‐density implants lead to incorrectly reconstructed
Hounsfield units in computed tomography images. This can result in a loss of accuracy in …

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the treatment plan adequacy and delivery efficiency
among volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) with one or two arcs and the conventional …

Recently, there has been an increased interest in the feasibility and impact of automation
within the field of medical dosimetry. While there have been many commercialized solutions …

Purpose The main objective of this study was to compare the dosimetric quality of volumetric
modulated arc therapy (VMAT) with that of proton therapy for high-risk prostate cancer …
