Objective: The aim is to investigate the influence of single planning (Plan S) and double plannings (Plan D) on bilateral lung cancer stereotactic body radiation therapy planning from the perspective of dosimetry and biology respectively. Methods Cases with bilateral lung cancer patients who had undergone SBRT with the Cyber-Knife were enrolled, and a single planning and double plannings were designed in the Multiplan@4.2 treatment planning system equipped with the Cyber-Knife system.

Methods: A cohort of 12 patients who were implanted with 3 or 4 golden markers were included in this study, and 495 orthogonal kilovoltage (kV) pairs of images acquired during the first fraction were used to extract the spacial position of each golden marker. Translational and rotational motions of tumor were calculated based on the marker coordinates by using an iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm.
Purposes: The main aim of the study was to investigate the dosimetric difference between acuros XB algorithm (AXB), anisotropic analytic algorithm (AAA), and pencil beam convolution (PBC) algorithm in stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) plan for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Patients And Methods: Thirty-eight NSCLC patients were included. GTV, PTV, and organs at risk were delineated by the radiation oncologists.
