Methods and materials 10 patients with UTEC were retrospectively planned with the sMLC and the mMLC. The monitor unites MUs and dose volume histogram-based parameters conformity index CI and homogeneous index HI were compared between the IMRT plans with sMLC and with mMLC. Results The IMRT plans with the mMLC were more efficient average MUs than plans with the sMLC average MUs p . Also compared to plans with the sMLC the plans with the mMLC showed advantages in dose coverage of the planning gross tumor volume Pgtv CI HI and the planning target volume PTV CI HI p . In addition the significant dose sparing in the D5 vs gEUD vs of the spinal cord the V10 vs V20 vs MLD vs and gEUD vs of the lungs were observed in the plans with the mMLC respectively p . Conclusions Comparing to the sMLC the mMLC not only demonstrated higher efficiencies and more optimal target coverage but also considerably improved the dose sparing of OARs in the IMRT planning for UTEC. Introduction Upper thoracic esophageal carcinoma UTEC occurs rarely and accounts for only 5 -10 of all esophageal carcinomas in 1 . Surgery operation has not been an appropriate .
