Impact of range uncertainties for intensity‐modulated mixed electron‐photon radiation therapy

In the two investigated cases, robustness to range uncertainties was not improved in robustly optimized versus non-robustly optimized plans. A larger study comprising more patients and treatment sites remains to be performed to adequately assess the necessity of robust optimization of MBRT plans to range uncertainties.

Abstract

In the two investigated cases, robustness to range uncertainties was not improved in robustly optimized versus non-robustly optimized plans. A larger study comprising more patients and treatment sites remains to be performed to adequately assess the necessity of robust optimization of MBRT plans to range uncertainties.
