Evaluation of robustness of optimization methods in breast intensity-modulated radiation therapy using TomoTherapy

Abstract: Introduction: Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) has become a popular choice for breast cancer treatment. We aimed to evaluate and compare the robustness of each optimization method used for breast IMRT using TomoTherapy.Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 10 patients with left breast cancer.
