Journal ArticleDOI

Optimized dose coverage of regional lymph nodes in breast cancer: the role of intensity-modulated radiotherapy.

TL;DR: The use of IMRT improves breast and regional node coverage while decreasing doses to the lungs, heart, and contralateral breast when compared with 3D-CRT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical comparison of head and neck and prostate IMRT plans using absorbed dose to medium and absorbed dose to water.

TL;DR: This study showed that converting D(m) to D(w) in MC-calculated IMRT treatment plans introduces a systematic error in target and critical structure DVHs in head-and-neck and prostate cases when the hard-bone-containing structures such as femoral heads are present.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improving IMRT dose accuracy via deliverable Monte Carlo optimization for the treatment of head and neck cancer patients.

TL;DR: The magnitude of the DPE( SC) and OCE(SC) differences demonstrate the importance of using the most accurate available algorithm in the deliverable IMRT optimization process, especially for the estimation of normal structure doses.
