Four-dimensional intensity-modulated radiotherapy planning for dynamic multileaf collimator tracking radiotherapy.

Purpose: To develop a four-dimensional intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) planning method for dynamic multileaf collimator (DMLC)-based tumor tracking that takes respiratory motion into consideration. Methods and Materials: Using the concept of optimal deformation, a series of apertures are pla...
