Fig. 2. — This figure shows the mean dose-volume histogram (10 patients) for the carotid artery, including results for each of the four treatment plans that were investigated. In our treatment-planning simulations, the normalized volume of the carotid artery that received in excess of 30 Gy was the lowest using TomoHelical intensity-modulated radiation therapy (TH-IMRT), the second-lowest using TomoHelical 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (TH-3DCRT), the third-lowest using 3-field IMRT (3F-IMRT), and the highest using 2-field 3DCRT (2F-3DCRT).
