Dosimetry in brain tumor phantom at 15 MV 3D conformal radiation therapy
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common, aggressive, highly malignant and infiltrative of all brain tumors with low rate of control. The main goal of this work was to evaluate the spatial dose distribution into a GBM simulator inside a head phantom exposed to a 15 MV 3D conformal radiation therapy in order to validate internal doses. A head and neck phantom developed by the Ionizing Ra...
متن کامل3D-Conformal Radiation Therapy and Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy Techniques for Laryngeal Cancer Taking Parotid Glands as Organ at Risk
Background: Three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) techniques are used for the treatment of patients with laryngeal cancer. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of these 2 treatment techniques on the planning target volume (PTV) (laryngeal cancer), dose homogeneity, dose of organs at...
متن کاملOptimization of tangential fields arrangement in the breast cancer 3D conformal radiation therapy
Introduction: The incidence of breast cancer increases with the rate of 1-2% at the world. Radiation therapy is one of the available choices for breast cancer treatment. The single isocentre half-beam block technique is considered as a standard technique to avoid hot and cold spots within the PTV. The major advantage of half beam technique is that the both contralateral breast...
متن کاملRespiratory motion effect on tumor and normal tissue doses in patients with lung cancer, treated with Intensity Modulation Radiation Therapy and Three Dimensional Conformal Radiation Therapy.
Introduction: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of respiratory motion during radiation therapy in patient with lung cancer and comparison of dosimetric parameters between Intensity modulation radiation therapy and three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy in lung cancer. Materials and Methods: Two CT scan was performred for each pati...
