Double scattering versus Scanning

Double Scattering

• Distal conformality

• No intensity modulation

• Difficult for dose painting

• Time consuming

• Adaptation cumbersome

Scanning

• Distal + proximal conformality

• Intensity Modulation

• Dose painting

• Faster to deliver

• Easier to adapt
