Planning and delivery of intensity-modulated radiation therapy
2008
Medical Physics (Lancaster)
Intensity modulated radiation therapy ͑IMRT͒ is an advanced form of external beam radiation therapy. IMRT offers an additional dimension of freedom as compared with field shaping in threedimensional conformal radiation therapy because the radiation intensities within a radiation field can be varied according to the preferences of locations within a given beam direction from which the radiation is directed to the tumor. This added freedom allows the treatment planning system to better shape the
