Numbers of beam angles required for near-optimal IMRT: theoretical limits and numerical studies.

PURPOSE: To derive limits on the numbers of beams needed to deliver near-optimal IMRT, and to assess the accuracy of the limits. METHODS: The authors four different limits have been derived. One, K(A), has been obtained by coupling Fourier techniques with a proof used to obtain Bortfeld's limi...
