This study investigates the dosimetric feasibility of using Gamma Pod, a stereotactic radiotherapy apparatus originally designed for breast SBRT, to deliver LRT to large, bulky breast tumor as a noninvasive treatment option.
Methods: The GammaPod-based LRT was simulated using Geant4 Gate Monte Carlo software.
