A margin-based analysis of the dosimetric impact of motion on step-and-shoot IMRT lung plans

PURPOSE: Intrafraction motion during step-and-shoot (SNS) IMRT is known to affect the target dosimetry by a combination of dose blurring and interplay effects. These effects are typically managed by adding a margin around the target. A quantitative analysis was performed, assessing the relationship...
