Volumetric modulated arc therapy ( VMAT )
New calorimeters Simon Duane, NPL Calorimetry remains the most fundamental method for the measurement of absorbed dose and is the basis of almost all absorbed dose primary standards worldwide. Absorbed dose to water is realised either directly, by using water as the absorbing medium, or indirectly, by using another medium (usually graphite) and determining a factor to convert dose from that med...
متن کاملCommissioning of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT).
PURPOSE Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) involves the simultaneous use of dynamic multileaf collimator (DMLC) techniques and gantry arcing; appropriate quality assurance is therefore required. This article describes the development and implementation of procedures for commissioning VMAT on a commercial linear accelerator (Elekta PreciseBeam VMAT with MLCi and Beam Modulator heads). MAT...
متن کاملBilateral Breast Irradiation Using Hybrid Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (h- VMAT) Technique: A Planning Case Report
The purpose of this planning case report is to share the perceived dosimetric benefits of innovative hybrid volumetric modulated arc therapy (h-VMAT) for bilateral breast cancer radiotherapy in two patients with synchronous bilateral breast cancer. Two patients with early bilateral breast cancer after breast conservation surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy were planned for bilateral breast radiot...
