Prostate treatment with helical TomoTherapy in patients with bilateral hip prostheses--Two case studies
Medical Dosimetry, 08/20/2012
Kling J et al. – TomoTherapy presents an effective option for these patients because of the ability to use a directional block, which prevents any primary beams from entering through the bilateral hip prostheses, use of megavolt computed tomography for daily localization, and delivery of radiation with intensity modulation allows for effective sparing of the organs at risk.
