The effect of density overrides on magnetic resonance-guided radiation therapy planning for lung cancer

Background and Purpose: Inverse treatment planning for lung cancer can be challenging since density heterogeneities may appear inside the planning target volume (PTV). One method to improve the quality of intensity modulation is the override of low density tissues inside the PTV during plan optimiza...
