Three-dimensional versus four-dimensional dose calculation for breast intensity-modulated radiation therapy.
CONCLUSIONS: IMN doses should be optimized during the dose-calculation for the free-breathing left breast IMRT.
ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: The interplay effect between respiratory motion and MLC modulation caused discrepancies in dose distribution, particularly in IMN.
