ROPES eye plaque dosimetry: commissioning and verification of an ophthalmic brachytherapy treatment planning system
In this study, the Plaque SimulatorTM eye plaque brachytherapy planning system was commissioned for ROPES eye plaques and Amersham Health model 6711 Iodine 125 seeds, using TG43-UI data. The brachytherapy module of the RADCALC® independent checking program was configured to allow verification of the accuracy of the dose calculated by Plaque SimulatorTM. Central axis depth dose distributions wer...
متن کاملDesign and Implementation of a Complementary Treatment Planning Software for the GZP6 HDR Brachytherapy System (GZP6 CTPS)
Introduction: Brachytherapy is one of the most common treatment modalities for gynecological cancer. The GZP6 brachytherapy system is one of the devices utilized in Iran. It has been considered particularly due to its low cost compared to other more complete and established systems. This system has some deficiencies including lack of a treatment planning software for non-predefined treatments, ...
متن کاملCT-Based Brachytherapy Treatment Planning using Monte Carlo Simulation Aided by an Interface Software
Introduction: In brachytherapy, radioactive sources are placed close to the tumor, therefore, small changes in their positions can cause large changes in the dose distribution. This emphasizes the need for computerized treatment planning. The usual method for treatment planning of cervix brachytherapy uses conventional radiographs in the Manchester system. Nowadays, because of their advantages ...
متن کاملdeveloping a treatment planning software based on tg-43u1 formalism for cs-137 ldr brachytherapy
conclusions according to the results, the old dosimetry formalisms, overestimate the dose especially towards the applicator’s tip. while the tg-43u1 based software perform the calculations more accurately. results for a typical arrangement of 10 active pellets in the applicator, the percentage difference between doses obtained by the new algorithm at 1cm distance from the tip of the applicator ...
متن کاملThe three-dimensional scintillation dosimetry method: test for a 106Ru eye plaque applicator.
The need for fast, accurate and high resolution dosimetric quality assurance in radiation therapy has been outpacing the development of new and improved 2D and 3D dosimetry techniques. This paper summarizes the efforts to create a novel and potentially very fast, 3D dosimetry method based on the observation of scintillation light from an irradiated liquid scintillator volume serving simultaneou...
