Intrafractional dose variation and beam configuration in carbon ion radiotherapy for esophageal cancer

BACKGROUND: In carbon ion radiotherapy (CIR) for esophageal cancer, organ and target motion is a major challenge for treatment planning due to potential range deviations. This study intends to analyze the impact of intrafractional variations on dosimetric parameters and to identify favourable settin...
