A proof of concept treatment planning study of gated proton radiotherapy for cardiac soft tissue sarcoma

Background and Purpose: Few studies on radiotherapy of cardiac targets exist, and none using a gating method according to cardiac movement. This study aimed to evaluate the dose-volume advantage of using cardiac-respiratory double gating (CRDG) in terms of target location with additional ECG signals...
