Minibeam‐pLATTICE: A novel proton LATTICE modality using minibeams
A novel minibeam-pLATTICE modality is proposed that can generate lattice dose patterns for small-to-medium target volumes, which are not achievable with conventional pLATTICE due to beam size limitations. Peak dose anisotropy due to 1D planar minibeam apertures is corrected through inverse treatment planning with alternating or multiple minibeam apertures per beam angle.
