Automatic feathering algorithm for VMAT craniospinal irradiation: A comprehensive comparison with other VMAT planning strategies
In craniospinal irradiation, field matching is very sensitive to intrafraction positional uncertainties in cranio-caudal direction, which could lead to severe overdoses/underdoses inside the planning target volume. During the last decade, significant efforts were made to develop volumetric-modulated arc therapy strategies, which were less sensitive to setup uncertainties. In this study, a treatment planning system-integrated method, named automatic feathering (AF) algorithm, was compared against other volumetric-modulated arc therapy strategies.
