Is RapidArc more susceptible to delivery uncertainties than dynamic IMRT?
Gregory T. Betzel, Byong Yong Yi, Ying Niu, and Cedric X. Yu
Purpose: Rotational IMRT has been adopted by many clinics for its promise to deliver treatments in a shorter amount of time than other conventional IMRT techniques. In this paper, the authors investigate whether RapidArc is more susceptible to delivery uncertainties than dynamic IMRT using fixed fields. ...
