Summary

This study compares the use of conventional radiotherapy technique with volumetric intensity-modulated radiotherapy (VMAT) in the treatment of painful cancer metastases. Half of the patients will receive radiotherapy using a conventional technique, while the other half will receive their treatment using a the VMAT technique.
