Magnetic field dose effects on different radiation beam geometries for hypofractionated partial breast irradiation
Abstract
PURPOSE: Hypofractionated partial breast irradiation (HPBI) involves treatment to the breast tumor using high doses per fraction. Recent advances in MRI-Linac solutions have potential in being applied to HPBI due to gains in the soft tissue contrast of MRI; however, there are potentially deleterious effects of the magnetic field on the dose distribution. The purpose of this work is to determine the effects of the magnetic field on the dose …
