Dosimetrical assessment of jaw tracking technique in volumetric modulated arc therapy for a sample of patients with lateralised targets

Introduction:In modulated radiotherapy treatments with the jaw tracking technique (JTT), the collimator jaws can dynamically follow the multileaf collimator apertures and reduce radiation leakage. This reduction protects normal tissue from unwanted doses. Previous research has highlighted the import...
