Background/aim: The current study aimed to evaluate a treatment planning method that is robust against tumor growth and to assess its effectiveness in particle therapy for head and neck cancer.
Patients And Methods: The proposed method optimizes dose distribution by replacing the relative stopping power ratio (rSPR) of the clinical target volume (CTV) cavity region with a tumor-equivalent rSPR (Condition 1). The optimized initial treatment plan template was then recalculated using in-room CT images acquired in the same treatment position, and the doses to the tumor and organs at risk were compared with those in the initial treatment plan.
