Effects of flattening filter‐free and volumetric‐modulated arc therapy delivery on treatment efficiency
Flattening filter‐free (FFF) beams are available on an increasing number of commercial linear accelerators. FFF beams have higher dose rates than flattened beams of equivalent energy which can lead to increased efficiency of treatment delivery, especially in conjunction with increased FFF beam energ...
