Several recent developments in linear accelerator–based radiation therapy (RT) such as fast
multileaf collimators, accelerated intensity modulation paradigms like volumeric modulated …

The 21st century has seen several paradigm shifts in the treatment of non-small cell lung
cancer (NSCLC) in early-stage inoperable disease, definitive locally advanced disease, and …

The accuracy of dose calculation is a key challenge in stereotactic body radiotherapy
(SBRT) of the lung. We have benchmarked three photon beam dose calculation algorithms …

This review addresses the theme of dose calculation accuracy in the case of the stereotactic
treatment of lung lesions. Based on the classical categories of type “a”,“b” and “c” algorithms …

The Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) 0813 protocol requires the use of dose
calculation algorithms with tissue heterogeneity corrections to compute dose on stereotactic …

The quality of radiation therapy depends on the ability to maximize the tumor control
probability while minimize the normal tissue complication probability. Both of these two …

This overview summarises the current evidence on efficacy and safety of single-fraction
stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) for primary lung cancers and lung …

Background Interest in MR-only treatment planning for radiation therapy is growing rapidly
with the emergence of integrated MRI/linear accelerator technology. The purpose of this …

Background The aim of current study was to investigate the way dose is prescribed to lung
lesions during SBRT using advanced dose calculation algorithms that take into account …
