Abstract

Lung cancer is the most common visceral cancer and surgery is the best treatment for this disease, but if the patient is unable to have surgery, radiotherapy will play an important role in treatment. This study aimed to compare the impact of different beam arrangement techniques by using three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) on the planning outcomes for curative and palliativepatients with lung cancer
