Abstract
Conclusion: Compared with the conformal plans, oncologists frequently preferred IMRT plans when using dose-volume histogram data. The advantages of IMRT plans include both improved planning target volume coverage and improved sparing of critical organs. We are currently studying organ motion in the upper abdomen as a prerequisite to using IMRT for actual patient treatment.
