As per the SIOPE guidelines in 2018, the CTVsub (including the superior orbital fissure, foramen rotundum, foramen ovale, jugular foramen, hypoglossal canal, internal auditory meatus and optic nerve) were delineated based on the original CTVold (whole brain plus sieve plate) to form PTVnew. A rough PTV (PTVrough) was formed by giving a margin of 15 mm forward-downward (skull base) and 3 mm in the other directions. CRTold and IMRTold plans were designed based on PTVold. CRTnew and IMRTnew plans were designed based on PTVnew. CRTrough plan was designed based on PTVrough. The omission of sub-structures based on CTVold and the underdose of CTVsub in each plan were evaluated. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000A total of 78.6% of superior orbital fissure, 71.99% of foramen rotundum, 96.76% of foramen ovale, 88.5% of jugular foramen, 97.71% of hypoglossal canal, 99.48% of internal auditory meatus and 100% of optic nerve volume were missed based on CTVold.
