Rthp-34. placement of scalp electrodes (novo ttf) does not significantly change radiation dosimetry when delivering cranial intensity modulated radiation therapy (imrt)

CONCLUSION:In a cranial radiation phantom model, the presence of NovoTTF transducer arrays does not impact radiation dosimetry. The impact would be even less in actual patient treatment due to frequent change of arrays with slight shift in placement.
