GTV-based prescription in SBRT for lung lesions using advanced dose calculation algorithms
BACKGROUND The aim of current study was to investigate the way dose is prescribed to lung lesions during SBRT using advanced dose calculation algorithms that take into account electron transport (type B algorithms). As type A algorithms do not take into account secondary electron transport, they overestimate the dose to lung lesions. Type B algorithms are more accurate but still no consensus is...
متن کاملAdapted Prescription Dose for Monte Carlo Algorithm in Lung SBRT: Clinical Outcome on 205 Patients
PURPOSE SBRT is the standard of care for inoperable patients with early-stage lung cancer without lymph node involvement. Excellent local control rates have been reported in a large number of series. However, prescription doses and calculation algorithms vary to a great extent between studies, even if most teams prescribe to the D95 of the PTV. Type A algorithms are known to produce dosimetric ...
متن کاملExperimentally studied dynamic dose interplay does not meaningfully affect target dose in VMAT SBRT lung treatments.
PURPOSE The effects of respiratory motion on the tumor dose can be divided into the gradient and interplay effects. While the interplay effect is likely to average out over a large number of fractions, it may play a role in hypofractionated [stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)] treatments. This subject has been extensively studied for intensity modulated radiation therapy but less so for...
متن کاملLung SBRT through Radiobiology
Purpose: Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has emerged as a standard treatment modality for medically inoperable early-stage lung cancer patients. The aim of this paper is to calculate radiobiological parameters for a sample of 39 patients who underwent lung SBRT. Materials and Methods: For SBRT, a typical regimen of 50 Gy in 4 5 fractions results in local tumor control rates around 99...
متن کاملSalvage SBRT for Previously Irradiated Lung Cancer
Purpose: Patients with locally recurrent lung cancer after definitive radiation therapy pose a challenge in management. Surgery is often not an option and chemotherapy offers poor long-term local control. Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) was investigated in an attempt to salvage locally recurrent lung cancer. Materials and Methods: From March, 2009 to January, 2010, 8 patients who had prev...
