To our knowledge, this is the first study to report the clinical outcomes for patients with scalp malignancies treated with the combination of VMAT and a 3D-milled bolus. This technique resulted in favorable clinical outcomes and an acceptable toxicity profile in comparison with historic controls and warrants further investigation in a larger prospective study.
