Effect of variations in atelectasis on tumor displacement during radiation therapy for locally advanced lung cancer [PDF]

, 2017
Purpose Atelectasis (AT), or collapsed lung, is frequently associated with central lung tumors. We investigated the variation of atelectasis volumes during radiation therapy and analyzed the effect of AT volume changes on the reproducibility of the ...
