Effect of the simulated half leaf width of a multileaf collimator on volumetric modulated arc therapy plan quality in hippocampal avoidance whole‐brain radiotherapy

PURPOSE: Whole‐brain radiotherapy (WBRT) is commonly used in patients with multiple brain metastases. Compared with conventional WBRT, hippocampal avoidance WBRT (HA‐WBRT) more favorably preserves cognitive function and the quality of life. The hippocampal volume is considerably small (approximately...
