This study devised a method to efficiently launch the RapidPlan model for volumetric-modulated arc therapy for prostate cancer in small- and medium-sized facilities using high-quality treatment plans with the PlanIQ software as a reference. Treatment plans were generated for 30 patients with prostat...
