Dosimetric impact of variable air cavity within PTV for rectum cancer
Air cavity volumes above 17 cm<sup>3</sup> can potentially degrade the high-dose PTV coverage while increasing the regions covered by the 102% and 105% isodoses. Clinical CBCT guidelines were deduced, recommending a maximum threshold of 3.2 cm in diameter in any direction.
