Dosimetry evaluation of salivary glands in 3D conformal radiotherapy and intensity modulated radiotherapy in oral tongue cancer
Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dosimetric and radiobiological parameters of salivary glands in treatment of patients with oral tongue cancer by 3D conventional radiotherapy (3D-CRT) and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) techniques. Materials and Methods: This study was performed on treatment planning of patients with oral tongue cancer in T2-3/N0 cancer s...
متن کاملOptimization of clinical target volume delineation using magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) in 3D conformal radiotherapy of prostate cancer
Background: For the purpose of individual clinical target volume assessment in radiotherapy of prostate cancer, MRSI was used as a molecular imaging modality with MRI and CT images. Materials and Methods: The images of 20 prostate cancer patients were used in this study. The MR and MRSI images were registered with CT ones using non-rigid registration technique. The CT based planning (BP), CT/MR...
متن کاملDosimetric comparison between intensity modulated radiotherapy and three dimensional conformal radiotherapy planning in patients with locally advanced cervical carcinoma
Background: External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is mainstay of treatment in patients with locally advanced cervical carcinoma (LACC). Three dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) are mainly used in EBRT. However which one is superior is still controversial. Materials and Methods: Forty patients of LACC treated with IMRT were selected for this study....
متن کاملThe comparison of dose distribution of different 3D conformal and conventional radiotherapy plans for gastric cancer
Aims: It was aimed to investigate postoperative conformal radiotherapy planning that provides the best target volume and the least dose for critical organs in cancers of stomach. Methods: This study was conducted on the CT simulation images of thirty patients diagnosed with gastric cancer. Target volumes and the organs at risk were contoured. AP-PA reciprocal parallel field conventional plan an...
