Published in 2024 at "Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics"

DOI: 10.1002/acm2.14295

Abstract: Abstract Purpose/Objective Field size limitations on Halcyon and Ethos treatment machines largely preclude use of the conventional monoisocentric three‐field technique for breast/chest wall and regional lymph nodes. We present an alternative, IMRT‐based planning approach that… read more here.
