The energy margin strategy for reducing dose variation due to setup uncertainty in intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) delivered with distal edge tracking (DET)

Intensity‐modulated proton therapy (IMPT) can produce plans with similar target dose conformity but lower normal tissue dose than intensity‐modulated X‐ray therapy (IMXT). However, due to the finite range of proton beams in tissue, proton therapy treatment plans are usually more sensitive to setup u...
