A Dosimetric Comparison of Coplanar Versus Noncoplanar Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) for High Grade Glioma
This study highlights equal PTV coverage, homogeneity, and conformity indices between cVMAT and NcVMAT plans. A better dosimetric profile of the optic chiasma, cochlea, and equal MU per fraction favors the NcVMAT technique for treating high-grade gliomas.
