3DEBRT

Synonyms: 3DCBRT, 3DCRT, 3DXRT, 3DXBRT

Definition: Conformal radiation may be given different names, hence different acronyms. It is usually preceded by 3D, meaning three-dimensional. For example, 3D conformal beam radiation therapy (3DCBRT), 3D conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT), 3D external beam radiation therapy (3DEBRT) and 3D external (beam) radiation therapy (3DXRT) may all refer to the same process.
