- A multi-institutional study was conducted to assess the discrepancies between radiotherapy treatment planning systems (TPSs) and verification programs for IMRT and VMAT.
- The analysis involved 477 IMRT/VMAT plans, revealing that the sliding window technique had greater negative systematic differences compared to the step-and-shoot technique, and that head and neck plans showed larger dose variations than prostate plans.
- The findings suggest that a local dose difference of ±5% may be a reasonable benchmark for institutions when evaluating agreement between primary calculations and verification for these radiation therapies.
