Improving Delivery Accuracy of Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy to a Moving Tumor Using Simplified Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy

PURPOSE: To develop a simplified volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) technique for more accurate dose delivery in thoracic stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). METHODS AND MATERIALS: For each of the 22 lung SBRT cases treated with respiratory-gated VMAT, a dose rate modulated arc therapy...
