Figure Lengend Snippet: Typical isodose distributions for helical tomotherapy (TOMO), volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT), and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plans for a patient showing the same CT slice. The planning target volume was painted in yellow. The pink, orange, green and red lines represent the dose curves of 5, 20, 30, and 60 (the prescription dose) Gy, respectively.
Article Snippet: The TOMO, VMAT, and IMRT treatment plans were performed using Tomotherapy (Accuray Incorporated, Sunnyvale, CA) and Raystation (RaySearch Laboratories AB, Stockholm, Sweden) treatment planning software for each patient.
