Abstract: Abstract This study evaluated unexpected dosimetric errors caused by machine control accuracy, patient setup errors, and patient weight changes/internal organ deformations. Trajectory log files for 13 gynecologic plans with seven‐ or nine‐beam dynamic multileaf collimator… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Medical physics"

DOI: 10.1002/mp.13593

Abstract: PURPOSE Spatiotemporal fractionation schemes for photon radiotherapy have recently arisen as a promising technique for healthy tissue sparing. Because spatiotemporally fractionated treatments have a characteristic pattern of delivering high doses to different parts of the… read more here.
