Figure 5

Population frequency histograms of variations in dosimetric indices for all simulated setup errors and different beam setups. Frequency histograms of the observed CTV Δ V95%, CTV Δ HI and OAR Δ D(near-)max comparing mc treatment plans adopting LR and ROB beam setups for (a) carbon ions and (b) protons. Abbreviations: CTV – clinical target volume, OAR – organ(s) at risk, LR – lateral-opposed beam setup, ROB – robust beam setup, mc – multiple-field modulation.
