Comparison of Planned Versus Delivered Dose to Children Receiving Total Body Irradiation Using Volumetric Arc Therapy
This first systematic evaluation of actual delivered doses in VMAT-TBI confirms the technique's dosimetric precision and safety. Our findings provide actionable evidence for optimizing VMAT-TBI implementation in clinical practice, particularly regarding dose verification protocols and adaptive strategies for low-dose regimens.
