Preplanning prediction of the left anterior descending artery maximum dose based on patient, dosimetric, and treatment planning parameters

PURPOSE: Maximum dose to the left anterior descending artery (LADmax) is an important physical constraint to reduce the risk of cardiovascular toxicity. We generated a simple algorithm to guide the positioning of the tangent fields to reliably maintain LADmax <10 Gy. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Dosime...
