Systematic reductions in radiation doses to sexual OARs was observed with SO‐VMAT compared to 3D‐CRT (Table 2 ): For the bulboclitoris, SO‐VMAT reduced the median D2cc dose from 4105.2 cGy (IQR: 2710.9–4415.1) to 2965.0 cGy (IQR: 1528.7–4476.9; p = 0.20) and the D50% dose from 2118.8 cGy (IQR: 739.5–2444.7) to 1163.0 cGy (IQR: 616.3–1530.1; p = 0.07) but did not reach statistical significance.
