Reliability of the gamma index analysis as a verification method of volumetric modulated arc therapy plans

Abstract Background We investigate the gamma passing rate (GPR) consistency when applying different types of gamma analyses, linacs, and dosimeters for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). Methods A total of 240 VMAT plans for various treatment sites, which were generated with Trilogy (140 plans...
