Figure Legend Snippet: DVHs of IMRT plans. DVHs of IMRT plans of the case 1 (A) and case 2 (B) shown in Fig. 2. Solid and dotted lines represent the plans with dose constraints for the corticospinal tract (Fig. 2A and C) and those without dose constraints (Fig. 2B and D), respectively. DVH analyses revealed that the doses to the corticospinal tracts and the brainstem were diminished by integrating tractography into IMRT planning, while PTV dose coverages were comparable. Light green, orange, green, purple, pink, and light blue lines represent DVHs of PTV1, PTV2, right corticospinal tract (CST-R), left corticospinal tract (CST-L), brainstem, and optic tract, respectively.
