A novel TPS toolkit to assess correlation between transit fluence dosimetry and DVH metrics for adaptive head and neck radiotherapy

A novel TPS toolkit to assess correlation between transit fluence dosimetry and DVH metrics for adaptive head and neck radiotherapy

Inter-fractional anatomical variations in head and neck (H&N) cancer patients can lead to clinically significant dosimetric changes. Adaptive re-planning should thus commence to negate any potential over-dosage to organs-at-risk (OAR), as well as potential under-dosage to target lesions. The aim...
