Interaction between CIEDs and modern radiotherapy techniques: Flattening filter free-VMAT, dose-rate effects, scatter radiation, and neutron-generating energies
Abstract
Background and purpose Providing evidence for radiotherapy (RT)-induced effects on cardiac implantable electric devices (CIEDs) with focus on flattening filter free-volumetric modulated arc therapy (FFF-VMAT) at 6 and 10 MV as well as 3D-conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) at 18 MV. Materials and methods 68 CIEDs (64 implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) and 4 cardiac pacemakers (PMs)) were located on the left chest position on a slab...
