Dosimetric Analysis of Proximal Bronchial Tree Subsegments to Assess The Risk of Severe Toxicity After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy of Ultra-central Lung Tumors

Dosimetric Analysis of Proximal Bronchial Tree Subsegments to Assess The Risk of Severe Toxicity After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy of Ultra-central Lung Tumors

Background and purpose: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) of ultra-central lung tumors (UCLT) is associated with an increased risk of severe toxicity. The aim of this study was to perform a detailed dosimetric analysis of the proximal bronchial tree (PBT) anatomical sub-segments to evaluate the...
