Dose calculation accuracy of lung planning with a commercial IMRT treatment planning system
The dose calculation accuracy of a commercial pencil beam IMRT planning system is evaluated by comparison with Monte Carlo calculations and measurements in an anthropomorphic phantom. The target volume is in the right lung and mediastinum and thus significant tissue inhomogeneities are present. The Monte Carlo code is an adaptation of the MCNP code and the measurements were made with TLD and fi...
متن کاملComparison of state-of-the-art atlas-based bone segmentation approaches from brain MR images for MR-only radiation planning and PET/MR attenuation correction
Introduction: Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging has emerged as a valuable tool in radiation treatment (RT) planning as well as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging owing to its superior soft-tissue contrast. Due to the fact that there is no direct transformation from voxel intensity in MR images into electron density, itchr('39')s crucial to generate a pseudo-CT (Computed Tomography) image ...
متن کاملA feasibility study on the use of MV-CBCT images for urgent palliative treatment planning
Introduction: The application of 3D volumetric imaging modalities in treatment planning of radiation therapy can provide more precisely define tumor localization, and computed tomography (CT) is the most common accepted method for treatment planning. Given the lack of a CT scanner stationed in all radiotherapy departments and equipping most of the medical linear accelerators wi...
متن کاملValidation of treatment planning system using simulation PRIMO code.
Introduction: In radiation therapy, in order to double-check the dosimetric results of the main treatment planning system (TPS), a distinct TPS, with few capacitances in terms of contouring and a variety of dose calculation algorithms is used. This system has the capability to double check the planification and the accurate prediction of dose distribution in order to be ensured...
متن کاملA study of planning dose constraints for treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma using a commercial inverse treatment planning system.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to develop and test planning dose constraint templates for tumor and normal structures in the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) using a specific commercial inverse treatment planning system. METHODS AND MATERIALS Planning dose constraint templates were developed based on the analyses of dose-volume histograms (DVHs) of tumor targets and adjacent...
