Partial and Full Arc Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy in Lung Cancer Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy with Different Definitions of Internal Target Volume Based on 4D CT
Purpose: To
investigate the feasibility of partial arc volumetric modulated arc therapy
(VMAT) in lung cancer stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), as well the
volumetric and dosimetric effects of different internal target volume (ITV)
definitions with 4D CT. Methods: Fourteen patients with primary and metastatic
lung cancer underwent SBRT were enrolled. Full and partial arc VMAT plans were
generated with four different ITVs: ITVall, ITVMIP, ITVAIP and
ITV
