Dosimetric comparison of linac-based modulated techniques for hippocampal sparing whole brain radiotherapy

ConclusionVMAT plans provide better target volume coverage, homogeneity, conformity, and hippocampus sparing when compared with IMRT plans. VMAT plans are also the best in terms of treatment efficiency since they require a much smaller number of MUs and thus a shorter treatment time than IMRT plans.
