Evaluation of dose distributions in the overlapping regions of the modulated volumetric arcs used in total body irradiation in pediatric patients
The planning results showed 98.2% dose coverage over 95% of the planning target volume (PTV) with adequate tolerance for risk organs. Regarding the gamma analysis, the acceptance rate was greater than 95% at the treatment isocenters with criteria of 3%/3 mm and 5%/5 mm. However, there is a decrease in the approved points in the overlap zone when evaluated with a 3%/3 mm criterion, while maintaining an approval percentage above 95% when evaluated with a 5%/5 mm criterion.
