Preliminary calculation of RBE-weighted dose distribution for cerebral radionecrosis in carbon-ion treatment planning.
Cerebral radionecrosis is a significant side effect in radiotherapy for brain cancer. The purpose of this study is to calculate the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of carbon-ion beams on brain cells and to show RBE-weighted dose distributions for cerebral radionecrosis speculation in a carbon-ion treatment planning system. The RBE value of the radionecrosis for the carbon-ion beam is ca...
متن کاملAn interface to calculate neutron RBE values using RBE tables based on the Local Effect Model
The ALLEGRO European project aims to give a unified and consistent description as well as recommendations to be applied in estimating the risk of radiation therapy to the healthy tissue. For a complete description of radiation field, neutrons and photons are also to be considered and their dose needs to be estimated. In the target region the dose contribution of these neutral particles remains ...
متن کاملAssessment of Different Training Methods in an Artificial Neural Network to Calculate 2D Dose Distribution in Radiotherapy
Introduction: Treatment planning is the most important part of treatment. One of the important entries into treatment planning systems is the beam dose distribution data which maybe typically measured or calculated in a long time. This study aimed at shortening the time of dose calculations using artificial neural network (ANN) and finding the best method of training t...
متن کاملA weighted metric method to optimize multi-response robust problems
In a robust parameter design (RPD) problem, the experimenter is interested to determine the values of con-trol factors such that responses will be robust or insensitive to variability of the noise factors. Response sur-face methodology (RSM) is one of the effective methods that can be employed for this purpose. Since quality of products or processes is usually evaluated through several quality ...
متن کاملA Method to Calculate Class Decision Fu
This paper deals with the concept of correlation in multi-classifier fusion tasks. The need to encapsulate the degree of correlation stems from the notion that the least amount of correlation among the classifiers is desired in fusion tasks. We define a measure that captures the correlation for n classifiers for binary output. In addition, we propose correlation calculation for classifiers with...
