Radiation Oncology and Medical Physics [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2015
Radiation therapy has been evolving with technological advances in accelerator, computer, and imaging. As the planning target volumes (PTVs) are made increasingly conformal with the advent of three-dimensional conformal therapy (3D CRT) and intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), the requirements of precise PTVs localization and its dosimetric ...
