3D heterogeneous dose distributions for total body irradiation patients
One major objective of total body irradiation (TBI) treatments is to deliver a uniform dose in the entire body of the patient. Looking at 3D dose distributions for constant speed (CstSpeed) and variable speed (VarSpeed) translating couch TBI treatments, dose uniformity and the effect of body heterogeneities were evaluated. This study was based on retrospective dose calculations of 10 patients t...

متن کاملDiode calibration for dose determination in total body irradiation
Background: Total Body Irradiation (TBI) is different from standard radiotherapy in many aspects, so it is not easy to predict the delivered dose to the patient under TBI treatment. Diode dosimetry procedures for surface dose reading can help to define variations of the actually delivered dose from the prescribed one. The aim of this study was to describe the measurements made to calib...

متن کاملVerification of Complex 3D-Dose Distributions in Carbon Ion Irradiation
In radiotherapy with swift carbon ions very complex dose distributions are applied to a desired target volume. Up to now at the GSI radiotherapy project only regide target volumes in the skull of patients are treated. Extending the benefit of carbon ion radiotherapy to the whole patients body, problems of target motion as heart beat or breathing will occur. Using raster scan technique this moti...
