An Optimization Approach for Noncoplanar Intensity-Modulated Arc Therapy Trajectories

The latest generation of linear accelerators allows the simultaneous motion of gantry and couch leading to highly noncoplanar arc trajectories. The use of noncoplanar trajectories in arc radiotherapy was recently proposed to combine the benefits of arc treatment plans, such as short treatment times,...
