Dosimetric optimization for dynamic mixed beam arc therapy (DYMBARC)
DYMBARC was successfully established using a dosimetrically optimized pathfinding approach, combining non-coplanarity with mixed beam modality. DYMBARC facilitated the determination of photon and electron contributions on a case-by-case basis, enhancing more personalized treatment modalities.
