[Comparison of dose calculation algorithms in stereotactic radiation therapy in lung].
Dose calculation algorithms in radiation treatment planning systems (RTPSs) play a crucial role in stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in the lung with heterogeneous media. This study investigated the performance and accuracy of dose calculation for three algorithms: analytical anisotropic algorithm (AAA), pencil beam convolution (PBC) and Acuros XB (AXB) in Eclipse (Varian Medical Syste...
متن کاملOptimization of extracranial stereotactic radiation therapy of small lung lesions using accurate dose calculation algorithms
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare and to validate different dose calculation algorithms for the use in radiation therapy of small lung lesions and to optimize the treatment planning using accurate dose calculation algorithms. METHODS A 9-field conformal treatment plan was generated on an inhomogeneous phantom with lung mimics and a soft tissue equivalent insert, mimicking a lung...
متن کاملRadiobiological impact of dose calculation algorithms on biologically optimized IMRT lung stereotactic body radiation therapy plans
BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to evaluate the radiobiological impact of Acuros XB (AXB) vs. Anisotropic Analytic Algorithm (AAA) dose calculation algorithms in combined dose-volume and biological optimized IMRT plans of SBRT treatments for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. METHODS Twenty eight patients with NSCLC previously treated SBRT were re-planned using Varian Eclipse (V...
متن کاملCalculation of total dose and dose equivalent distribution in the treatment of lung cancer using MR-guided carbon therapy
Nowadays, in order to improve the accuracy of treatment in radiation therapy, there are many attempts to use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) due to the advantages of excellent soft tissue contrast and ultra-fast pulse sequences. On the other hand, carbon-ion radiation therapy is developing rapidly due to the benefits of greater relative biological effectiveness (RBE) and the application in the...
متن کاملDose Tolerance for Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy.
Normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) results were detailed in the July 2001 issue of Seminars in Radiation Oncology for conventionally fractionated radiation therapy. After 7 years, an extensive collection of stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) or stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) dose-tolerance limits was presented in the October 2008 issue of Seminars in Radiation...
