Verification of the Accuracy of the Delivered Dose in Brain Tumors by in Vivo Dosimetry Using Diode Detectors
Introduction: During radiotherapy, high accuracy in the dose delivery is required because there is a strong relationship between the absorbed dose, local tumor control and particularly the normal tissue damage. In many institutions, in vivo dosimetry using diodes is performed to check the actual dose delivered. In general, the uncertainty in the dose delivered should fall within ± 5% of the...
متن کاملIn vivo proton beam range verification using spine MRI changes.
PURPOSE In proton therapy, uncertainty in the location of the distal dose edge can lead to cautious treatment plans that reduce the dosimetric advantage of protons. After radiation exposure, vertebral bone marrow undergoes fatty replacement that is visible on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This presents an exciting opportunity to observe radiation dose distribution in vivo. We used quantitat...

متن کاملAssessment of a 2D EPID-based Dosimetry Algorithm for Pre-treatment and In-vivo Midplane Dose Verification
Introduction: The use of electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) is a method for the dosimetric verification of radiotherapy plans both pretreatment and in-vivo. The aim of this study was to test a 2D EPID-based dosimetry algorithm for dose verification of some plans inside a homogenous and anthropomorphic phantom and in-vivo, as well. Materials and Methods: </strong...
متن کاملpassivity in waiting for godot and endgame: a psychoanalytic reading
this study intends to investigate samuel beckett’s waiting for godot and endgame under the lacanian psychoanalysis. it begins by explaining the most important concepts of lacanian psychoanalysis. the beckettian characters are studied regarding their state of unconscious, and not the state of consciousness as is common in most beckett studies. according to lacan, language plays the sole role in ...
