Comparative Analysis of Dynamic Conformal Arc Therapy and Volumetric-modulated Arc Therapy in Lung Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy: Evaluating Dosimetric Performance, Treatment Delivery Efficiency, and Plan Robustness
DCAT demonstrated clinically acceptable dosimetric results comparable to those of VMAT for lung tumor SBRT, while offering superior treatment efficiency and robustness to MLC positional errors. These findings suggested that DCAT is an effective alternative to VMAT in clinical practice.
