Treatment Planning Techniques in External Beam Photon Radiation Therapy
Abstract: Volumetric modulated radiation therapy (VMAT) is a modern treatment technique in radiation therapy, and it delivers conformal radiation dose to the tumor while minimizing dose to the normal tissues. The beam delivery is done in the form of one or multiple arcs, with gantry rotating around the treatment isocenter. A number of literature suggests that VMAT could be an attractive option to treat prostate cancer. However, there is no consensus …
