Investigation of the added value of high-energy electrons in intensity-modulated radiotherapy: four clinical cases

Purpose : Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with photon beams is currently pursued in many clinics. Theoretically, inclusion of intensity- and energy-modulated high-energy electron beams (15–50 MeV) offers additional possibilities to improve radiotherapy treatments of deep-seated tumors. In th...
