Dosimetric effects of anatomical changes during fractionated photon radiation therapy in pancreatic cancer patients

Pancreatic tumors show large interfractional position variation. In addition, changes in gastrointestinal gas volumes and body contour take place over the course of radiation therapy. We aimed to quantify the effect of these anatomical changes on target dose coverage, for the clinically used fiducia...
