Article Title: Junctioning longitudinally adjacent PTVs with Helical TomoTherapy

doi: 10.1120/jacmp.v11i2.3047

Figure Lengend Snippet: INF end of the PTV simulated profiles for field widths of 25 mm and 50 mm, and the simulated stepped dose profiles from breaking the PTVs into smaller sub‐PTVs for deliveries with 25 mm field width.

Article Snippet: In order to reduce the dose heterogeneity, the PTVs were divided into two or four smaller sub‐PTVs near the junction (only for deliveries with a 25 mm field), with the sub‐PTV prescription dose decreasing toward the junction so that the adjacent PTVs had similar CC dose profiles.

Article Title: The heterogeneous CTV-PTV margins should be given for different parts of tumors during tomotherapy

doi: 10.18632/oncotarget.21631

Figure Lengend Snippet: An example for abdomen tumors (a) CTV (in red) was 416.08 ml, PTV 1 (in purple; expended margins of Zhou’s recommendation) was 839.18 ml; the PTV 2 (in green; expended margins of this study) was 691.35 ml. (b and c) The relationship of three volume, the intersectional volume of PTV 1 and PTV 2 was 682.89 ml, and V P T V 1 − P T V 2 = 140.16 ml (b), V P T V 2 − P T V 1 = 4.45 ml (c).

Article Snippet: The purpose of this study was to evaluate CTV-PTV margins of tumors for tomotherapy.
