Purpose: Minimum segment width (MSW) plays a fundamental role in the shaping of optimized apertures and creation of segments of varying sizes and shapes in complex radiotherapy treatment plans. The purpose of this work was to study the effect of MSW on dose distribution in patients planned with VMAT for various treatment sites using dose volume histogram (DVH) analysis.

Materials And Methods: For the validation of optimum MSW, 125 clinical treatment plans were evaluated.
