Reason
In certain configurations, the 4DITC can interpret a RapidArc or VMAT treatment field as 3D Conformal Arc Treatment Plan. If a RapidArc or VMAT treatment field is incorrectly interpreted as Conformal Arc, the field will be delivered with a constant dose rate and gantry speed for the entire duration of the delivery, which can lead to delivered dose being different than planned.
