Use of FDG-PET to guide dose prescription heterogeneity in stereotactic body radiation therapy for lung cancers with volumetric modulated arc therapy: a feasibility study

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to assess if FDG-PET could guide dose prescription heterogeneity and decrease arbitrary location of hotspots in SBRT. METHODS: For three patients with stage I lung cancer, a CT-simulation and a FDG-PET were registered to define respectively the PTV(CT) and the b...
