Evaluation of radiation treatment plan quality in head and neck cancer: a comparative analysis of RapidArc technique with flattening filter and flattening filter-free photon beams

In contrast to the FF photon beam, an FFF photon beam-oriented RA plan provides significant OAR sparing without losing the quality of the treatment plan. High monitor units and beam on time are major highlights of the RA plan with FFF beam.

Abstract

In contrast to the FF photon beam, an FFF photon beam-oriented RA plan provides significant OAR sparing without losing the quality of the treatment plan. High monitor units and beam on time are major highlights of the RA plan with FFF beam.
