Possibility of chest wall dose reduction using volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) in radiation-induced rib fracture cases: comparison with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)

The present study compares dosimetric parameters between volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and 3D conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT) in lung tumors adjacent to the chest wall treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). The study focused on the radiation dose to the chest wall of...
