Feasibility of MV CBCT‐based treatment planning for urgent radiation therapy: dosimetric accuracy of MV CBCT‐based dose calculations
Unlike scheduled radiotherapy treatments, treatment planning time and resources are limited for emergency treatments. Consequently, plans are often simple 2D image-based treatments that lag behind technical capabilities available for nonurgent radiotherapy. We have developed a novel integrated urgent workflow that uses onboard MV CBCT imaging for patient simulation to improve planning accuracy ...
متن کاملInfluence of acquisition parameters on MV‐CBCT image quality
The production of high quality pretreatment images plays an increasing role in image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) and adaptive radiation therapy (ART). Megavoltage cone-beam computed tomography (MV-CBCT) is the simplest solution of all the commercially available volumetric imaging systems for localization. It also suffers the most from relatively poor contrast due to the energy range of the imagi...
متن کاملAssessment of image quality and dose calculation accuracy on kV CBCT, MV CBCT, and MV CT images for urgent palliative radiotherapy treatments
A clinical workflow was developed for urgent palliative radiotherapy treatments that integrates patient simulation, planning, quality assurance, and treatment in one 30-minute session. This has been successfully tested and implemented clinically on a linac with MV CBCT capabilities. To make this approach available to all clin-ics equipped with common imaging systems, dose calculation accuracy b...
متن کاملMv - Cycles and Mv - Polytopes in Type A
We study, in type A, the algebraic cycles (MV-cycles) discovered by I. Mirkovi´c and K. Vilonen [MV]. In particular, we partition the loop Grassmannian into smooth pieces such that the MV-cycles are their closures. We explicitly describe the points in each piece using the lattice model of the loop Grassmannian in type A. The partition is invariant under the action of the coweights and, up to th...
متن کاملMV* - Algebras
In this paper we make an algebraic study of the variety of M V * –algebras introduced by C. C.Chang as an algebraic counterpart for a logic with positive and negative truth values. We build the algebraic theory of M V * –algebras within its own limits using a concept of ideal and of prime ideal that are very naturally related to the corresponding concepts in –groups. The main results are a subd...
