Treating lung cancer with dynamic conformal arc therapy: a dosimetric study
BACKGROUND: Lung cancer patients are often in poor physical condition, and a shorter treatment time would reduce their discomfort. Dynamic conformal arc therapy (DCAT) offers a shorter treatment time than conventional 3D conformal radiotherapy (3D CRT) and is usually available even in departments wi...
