Percentage of heart that received 30 Gy of 3DCRT plans and IMRT plans with different numbers of beams.
Treatment techniques | Percentage of heart that received 30 Gy (V30) (mean ± std.deviation) |
---|---|
CTT | 6.66 ± 8.35 |
IMRT7 | 4.04 ± 4.57 |
IMRT9 | 2.82 ± 3.39A |
IMRT11 | 2.98 ± 3.13A |
p < 0.05 significantly higher than CTT.
