From: Comparison of the dosimetries of 3-dimensions Radiotherapy (3D-RT) with linear accelerator and intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with helical tomotherapy in children irradiated for neuroblastoma

Figure 1

Dose distribution 3D-RT (A) and HT (B) for children with oblique fields for RT-3D (child 1) and antero-posterior fields (child 2). Red color: at least 95%, yellow: a least 90%; green at least 50% and blue at least 10% of the prescribed dose (~2 Gy). The 2-Gy isodose was shown because this dose is believed to be important for the secondary radiation-induced cancer risks.
