Influence of beamlet width on dynamic IMRT plan quality in nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Objective This study aimed to identify the effects of beamlet width on dynamic intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and determine the optimal parameters for the most effective radiotherapy plan. Methods This study evaluated 20 patients with NPC were selecte...
