Treatment planning and 4D robust evaluation strategy for proton therapy of lung tumors with large motion amplitude

PURPOSE: Intensity‐modulated proton therapy (IMPT) for lung tumors with a large tumor movement is challenging due to loss of robustness in the target coverage. Often an upper cut‐off at 5‐mm tumor movement is used for proton patient selection. In this study, we propose (1) a robust and easily implem...
