Diode 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 کامل3D 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 کاملReview of techniques for improving the uniformity of dose distribution in total body irradiation (TBI) with parallel – opposed anterior and posterior geometry
Total body irradiation (TBI) is a kind of external beam radiotherapy which is used in conjunction with chemotherapy with the purpose of immunosuppression before bone marrow transplantation. As recommended by AAPM dose distribution uniformity in TBI is very important and dose variation must be within ±10% of prescription dose. Patients treatment geometry for TBI techniques fall into two co...
