Considerations and adaptions to the modulated arc total body irradiation technique: dosimetry description
Abstract Total body irradiation (TBI) is a complex treatment technique, which has been slow to transition to a three‐dimensional (3D) planning approach. There is limited literature available providing a detailed description on methods to plan TBI on a 3D planning system. 3D planning using the modula...
