However, many elderly or frail patients have shoulder problems and cannot tolerate such an overstretched position for an extended period. Therefore, the arms-down position becomes the only alternative for this group of patients during radiation therapy. Even though the arms-down position is not ideal, it does provide a stable and comfortable patient immobilization position for radiation treatments that require a longer delivery time, such as stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). In this study, we designed a protocol to treat lung cancer patients with VMAT stereotactic body radiation therapy (VMAT SBRT) and deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) in the arms-down position. Our initial clinical experience with this protocol indicates that it is reliable for patient immobilization and accurate in delivered dosimetry. </div> 展开更多
