Purpose: To report adverse effects of high dose total body irradiation (TBI) delivered using a volumetric arc therapy (VMAT) technique and to assess pulmonary toxicity at dose rates of 40 and 100 monitor units per minute (MU/min). Methods and Materials: This retrospective study included patients >18 years old who received ≥8 Gy TBI using a VMAT technique. The TBI dose was prescribed to a planning target volume consisting of a 0.5 cm retraction of the body with the lungs subtracted. The objective function specified planning target volume coverage goals of D100% ≥ 90% and Dmax |
