Hair-sparing whole brain radiotherapy with volumetric arc therapy in patients treated for brain metastases: dosimetric and clinical results of a phase II trial
PURPOSE: To report the dosimetric results and impact of volumetric arc therapy (VMAT) on temporary alopecia and hair-loss related quality of life (QOL) in whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT). METHODS: The potential of VMAT-WBRT to reduce the dose to the hair follicles was assessed. A human cadaver was t...
