Figure 6From: 4D treatment planning for scanned ion beamsImpact of non-translational motion components on dose deposition. a) Reference dose distribution: Irradiation of a beam position (arrow) results in dose deposition along the beam path (color gradient). b) For motion including rotations or deformations simple motion compensation by adaptation of the Bragg peak position is not sufficient because dose deposition in the entrance channel changes.Back to article page
