Treatment planning for volumetric modulated arc therapy.
PURPOSE Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) is a specific type of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in which the gantry speed, multileaf collimator (MLC) leaf position, and dose rate vary continuously during delivery. A treatment planning system for VMAT is presented. METHODS Arc control points are created uniformly throughout one or more arcs. An iterative least-squares algori...
متن کاملRadiotherapy treatment planning
In radical radiotherapy treatment we aim to accurately deliver a lethal dose of radiation to tumour cells while sparing any surrounding normal tissues. Radiotherapy treatment planning is the process undertaken to determine the most appropriate way to deliver the radiation in order to meet the clinical prescription. Rapid advances in technology and computing, particularly in relation to imaging,...
متن کاملTreatment planning for the GSI radiotherapy
Throughout the year 2000 our standard treatment planning software TRiP98 [1, 2] which went into production last year [3] was used in combination with the Voxelplan environment for the planning of all 32 patients [4]. Specific improvements on the software side were the introduction of inhomogeneous dose prescriptions, extensions of the beam model and addition of auxiliary functions. Inhomogeneou...
متن کاملTreatment Planning for the Carbon Ion Radiotherapy
In the three therapy beam times 2007 about 50 patients were planned and treated with our treatment planning software, TRiP98, and its development version, TRiP98BEAM. In the past, the standard method was to optimize the biological target dose distribution for the contributing partial fields singly. Due to the enormous effort for the computation of biological effects, only a simple, but still su...
متن کاملVolumetric modulated arc therapy treatment planning of thoracic vertebral metastases using stereotactic body radiotherapy
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES To retrospectively evaluate the plan quality, treatment efficiency, and accuracy of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans for thoracic spine metastases using stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). MATERIALS/METHODS Seven patients with thoracic vertebral metastases treated with noncoplanar hybrid arcs (NCHA) (1 to 2 3D-conformal partial arcs +7 to 9 IMRT beams) were ...
