Questions and Answers

What is the primary limitation of using large population-based margins in radiation therapy?

  • It is a time-consuming process
  • It results in high dose to OARs even with IMRT/VMAT (correct)
  • It is not effective for treating tumors with small motion
  • It is not suitable for treating tumors with large motion
  • What is the purpose of creating multiple patient-specific plans with smaller margins?

  • To reduce treatment time
  • To increase treatment effectiveness
  • To improve patient comfort
  • To reduce dose to OARs (correct)
  • How does uterine motion vary?

  • It is constant and does not vary
  • It is large and depends on bladder filling (correct)
  • It is small and depends on rectal filling
  • It is unpredictable and random
