Fig. 3From: Potential dosimetric benefits of adaptive tumor tracking over the internal target volume concept for stereotactic body radiation therapy of pancreatic cancerDose-volume histograms (DVHs) for the target volume (TV), PTV and GTV, and also for the organs at risk (bowel, duodenum, liver, and stomach) for both dose distributions (3D and 4D) and motion management methods (the ITV concept and tumor tracking approach) in case of patient 1 (pancreatic motion: 11.2 mm) and patient 7 (2.1 mm). Target volume: ITV (ITV concept); GTV (tumor tracking approach). 3D = three dimensional; 4D = four dimensional dose. ITV = internal target volume concept; track = tumor tracking approachBack to article page
