Adequate target volume in total-body irradiation by intensity-modulated radiation therapy using helical tomotherapy: a simulation study
Recently, intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) has been used for total-body irradiation (TBI). Since the planning target volume (PTV) for TBI includes the surrounding air, a dose prescription to the PTV provides high fluence to the body surface. Thus with just a small set-up error, the body...
