Do you use a chest wall constraint when treating large lung cancers with 8 or 10 fraction SBRT?  

If so, what constraint is most clinically relevant?

The EORTC LungTech trial (60Gy/8 fractions) does not specify a chest wall constraint. I have found guidelines for "rib" constraints for this circumstance, but none specifically designated for the "chest wall."
