Optimizing Dose Reduction to the Left Anterior Descending Artery in Patients With Locally Advanced Lung Cancer Treated With Definitive Radiation Therapy: A Feasibility Study of Coplanar Treatments Using Double-Stacked Multileaf Collimator
Heart_Ethos plans showed significant reduction in cardiac and LAD doses in comparison to the original plans while maintaining target and organ at risk goals. Our findings suggest that Ethos technology has the potential for better cardiac toxicity safety because Heart_Ethos plans were still able to reduce cardiac dose compared with Heart_TB plans.
