Dosimetric Comparison of Hippocampal Sparing Whole Brain Radiotherapy by Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy, Linac-based Intensity-modulated Radiation Therapy and 3-D Conformal Radiation Therapy: A Cross-sectional Study

Introduction: Brain metastases are treated with Whole-Brain Radiotherapy (WBRT) using the 3-D Conformal Radiation Therapy (3DCRT) technique. Attempts have been made to perform dosimetric analysis of WBRT with hippocampal sparing using 3DCRT, Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT), and Linac-based I...
