| Abstract [eng] |
This investigation covers a randomized study, which compares Planning Target Volume (PTV) differences between the three strategies of radiotherapy treatment for a lung tumour. All patients’ treatment plans were grouped into three categories: SBRT with respiratory control and non-SBRT with and without breath monitoring. The research outcome shows a noticeable tendency that breath control minimizes PTV. Additionally, the SBRT technique stands out as a significant method, which could be applied for difficult malignancies. |
