Dosimetric Comparison of Noncoplanar VMAT Without Rotating the Patient Couch Versus Conventional Coplanar/Noncoplanar VMAT for Head and Neck Cancer: First Report of Dynamic Swing Arc
DSA plans using OXRAY for HNSCC maintained PTV coverage while reducing parotid gland and oral cavity mean doses compared to coplanar VMAT plans, although delivery times increased. DSA plans reduced parotid gland doses and delivery times compared to noncoplanar VMAT plans.
