COMPUTERIZED DOSIMETRY ITS PRECISION IN RADIOTHERAPY TREATMENT PLANNING

Comparing the results of 3D treatment planning and practical dosimetry in craniospinal radiotherapy using Rando phantom

Background: Craniospinal radiotherapy faces technical challenges which are due to the sensitivity of the location in which the gross tumor is, and to organs at risk around planning target volume. Using modern treatment planning systems causes a reduction in the complexities of the treatment techniques. The most effective method to assess the dosimetric accuracy and the validity of the ...

Gamma Knife Dosimetry & Treatment Planning

Skin in vivo Dosimetry in Radiotherapy

Introduction: Due to the prevalence of skin problems in patients after radiotherapy, skin dose measuring is importance. Content: Skin in vivo dosimetry means measuring the patient's (or phantom) skin dose during radiotherapy. According to the ICRP 59, the dose at the depth of 0.07 mm is known as a skin dose. The most radiosensitive epidermis cells are located...
