Dosimetric Evaluation and Reproducibility of Breath-hold Plans in Intensity Modulated Proton Therapy: An Initial Clinical Experience

Purpose: Breath-hold (BH) technique can mitigate target motion, minimize target margins, reduce normal tissue doses, and lower the effect of interplay effects with intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT). This study presents dosimetric comparisons between BH and nonbreath-hold (non-BH) IMPT plans...
