PO-0796: Volumetric analysis of MRI response in meninigiomas treated with 3-dimensional conformal radiation therapy

Respiratory motion effect on tumor and normal tissue doses in patients with lung cancer, treated with Intensity Modulation Radiation Therapy and Three Dimensional Conformal Radiation Therapy.

Introduction:   The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of respiratory motion during radiation therapy in patient with lung cancer and comparison of dosimetric parameters between Intensity modulation radiation therapy and three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy in lung cancer.   Materials and Methods:   Two CT scan was performred for each pati...

Comparison of three different techniques in parotid gland tumors using three dimensional conformal radiation therapy

Introduction: Background: Radiotherapy of parotid tumors is achieved by different radiotherapy techniques. So they deliver the dose to organs at risk such as contralateral parotid, temporal lobe & spinal cord. The consequences of high dose to OARs are xerostomia, Temporal lobe necrosis and loss of hearing. Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare different treatment tech...

Comparison of Radiobiological Models for Radiation Therapy Plans of Prostate Cancer: Three-dimensional Conformal versus Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy

Purpose: In the current study, using different radiobiological models, tumor control probability (TCP) and normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) of radiotherapy plans were calculated for three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT) and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) of prostate cancer.Methods and Materials: 10 prostate plans were randomly selected among patients ...

Comparison of three dimensional conformal radiation therapy, intensity modulated radiation therapy and volumetric modulated arc therapy for low radiation exposure of normal tissue in patients with prostate cancer.

Radiotherapy has an important role in the treatment of prostate cancer. Three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT), intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) techniques are all applied for this purpose. However, the risk of secondary radiation-induced bladder cancer is significantly elevated in irradiated patients compared surgery-only ...
