A Beam-Angle-Selection Method to Improve Inter-Fraction Motion Robustness for Lung Tumor Irradiation With Passive Proton Scattering
In terms of dose distribution, protons are more sensitive to range variations than photons due to their unique properties. The aim of this study was to develop a method to identify patient-specific robust proton beam angles for lung tumor irradiation by investigating the association between water eq...
