Abstract:PurposeTo evaluate the feasibility of an open‐source, semi‐automated, and reproducible vertex placement tool to improve the efficiency of lattice radiotherapy (LRT) planning. We used polymer gel dosimetry with a Cone Beam CT (CBCT) readout to commission this LRT technique.Material and methodsWe generated a volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT)‐based LRT plan on a 2 L NIPAM polymer gel dosimeter using our Eclipse Acuros version 15.6 AcurosXB beam model, and also recalculated the plan with a pre‐clinical Acuro… Show more
