For both HDPs and APs, 95% percent of both PTV_70 and PTV_56 volumes were covered by the respective prescription doses with no deviations. Likewise, the cord constraint was always fulfilled. With the rest of the acceptability criteria, for nine out of ten patients, all plans either fully complied with the protocol or exhibited only minor deviations. With one patient, no plan was able to keep the 0.03 cc cold spot above 63 Gy for the original PTV_70 and only the HDP achieved a minor deviation with PTV_70 cropped 8 mm away from the skin (64.8 Gy). The AP PTV_70 cold spots ranged from 59.7 to 62.1 Gy. For all other patients, the cold spot was RTOG‐acceptable, even with the full PTV_70.
