Continuous and bilevel positive airway pressure may improve radiotherapy delivery in patients with intra-thoracic tumors

Clinical and Translational Radiation Oncology
Background: Minimizing tumor motion in radiotherapy for intra-thoracic tumors reduces side-effects by limiting radiation exposure to healthy tissue. Continuous or Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP/BiPAP) could achieve this, since it could increase ...
