Is maximum intensity projection an optimal approach for internal target volume delineation in lung cancer?
Purpose: Respiratory-induced tumor motion is a major challenge in lung cancer (LC) radiotherapy. Four-dimensional computed tomography (4D-CT) using a maximum intensity projection (MIP) dataset is a commonly used and time-efficient method to generate internal target volume (ITV). This study compared...
