Assessment of intra-fractional and inter-fractional motion in esophageal cancer treated with intensity-modulated proton therapy

Assessment of intra-fractional and inter-fractional motion in esophageal cancer treated with intensity-modulated proton therapy

Abstract Propose Proton therapy of esophageal cancer is beneficial to spare normal tissue in clinical practice. However, intra-fractional and inter-fractional variance of tumor motion during treatment may compromise target coverage. The purpose of this study was to investigate the interplay effect d...
