Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The study investigators will conduct a prospective study on patients with non-metastatic vulvar cancer who will receive radiation treatment using Volumetric Arc Therapy (VMAT) modality with curative intent. Our aim is to compare straight-leg versus frog-leg position in terms of RTOG acute skin toxicity. Also, the study investigators will evaluate if positioning has an impact on the total treatment time and deviation on Cone Beam CT (CBCT) that might warrant re-simulation and consequently re-planning.
