To study the impact of different optimization methods on intensity-modulated radiotherapy and volumetric-modulated arc therapy plans for hip prosthesis patients

Purpose: To study the impact of different optimization methods in dealing with metallic hip implant using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) techniques. Materials and Methods: A cohort of 16 patients having metallic implants was selected for the study...
