An anthropomorphic spine phantom for proton beam approval in NCI‐funded trials
As part of the approval process for the use of scattered or uniform scanning proton therapy in National Cancer Institute (NCI)-sponsored clinical trials, the Radiological Physics Center (RPC) mandates irradiation of two RPC anthropomorphic proton phantoms (prostate and spine). The RPC evaluates these irradiations to ensure that they agree with the institutions' treatment plans within criteria o...
متن کاملSU-E-CAMPUS-T-03: Development and Implementation of An Anthropomorphic Pediatric Spine Phantom for the Assessment of Craniospinal Irradiation Procedures in Proton Therapy.
PURPOSE To design an anthropomorphic pediatric spine phantom for use in the evaluation of proton therapy facilities for clinical trial participation by the Imaging and Radiation Oncology Core (IROC) Houston QA Center (formerly RPC). METHODS This phantom was designed to perform an end-to-end audit of the proton spine treatment process, including simulation, dose calculation by the treatment pl...
متن کاملIn Vivo Dosimetry of an Anthropomorphic Phantom Using the RADPOS for Proton Beam Therapy
The radiation positioning system (RADPOS) combines an electromagnetic positioning sensor with metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) dosimetry, enabling simultaneous online measurement of dose and spatial position. Evaluation points can be determined with the RADPOS. The accuracy of in-vivo proton dosimetry was evaluated using the RADPOS and an anthropomorphic head and neck ...
متن کاملThe effect of surgical titanium rods on proton therapy delivered for cervical bone tumors: experimental validation using an anthropomorphic phantom.
To investigate the effect of metal implants in proton radiotherapy, dose distributions of different, clinically relevant treatment plans have been measured in an anthropomorphic phantom and compared to treatment planning predictions. The anthropomorphic phantom, which is sliced into four segments in the cranio-caudal direction, is composed of tissue equivalent materials and contains a titanium ...
متن کاملA proposal for a standard electronic anthropomorphic phantom for radiotherapy.
To create a database of human male and female computed tomography (CT) slices, the National Library of Medicine organized the "Visible Human Project." Since the male and female data sets provided are approximately 269 MB and 915 MB, respectively, both the size and complexity have been reduced. While making the slices accessible to those with limited computing resources, the production of these ...
