Dosimetric Comparison between Dynamic Wave Arc and Co-Planar Volumetric Modulated Radiotherapy for Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer

Dosimetric Comparison between Dynamic Wave Arc and Co-Planar Volumetric Modulated Radiotherapy for Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer

Introduction: Dose reduction to the duodenum is important to decrease gastrointestinal toxicities in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy. We aimed to compare dynamic wave arc (DWA), a volumetric-modulated beam delivery technique with simu...
