Dosimetric Parameters in Hypofractionated Stereotactic Radiotherapy for Brain Metastases: Do Flattening Filter-Free Beams Bring Benefits? A Preliminary Study

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the dosimetric results of flattening filter-free (FFF) vs. flattened (FF) treatment plans for fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (fSRT), with the goal to highlight potential advantages of FFF beams. Methods: A group of 18 patients with brain metastases treate...
