Enhancing dose conformity in head and neck intensity‐modulated proton therapy using a novel dynamic multi‐leaf collimator strategy

Medical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Background Proton pencil beam scanning (PBS) enables highly conformal dose distributions; however, its lateral dose fall‐off (penumbra) can be compromised by the use of range shifters (RSs) and increased air gaps. In PBS for head and neck regions, where critical organs at risk (OARs) are frequently adjacent to the target, penumbra degradation ...
