چکیده

Radiotherapy is the treatment of cancer by using electromagnetic and particle radiation. Nasopharyngeal Cancer (NPC) one difficult case to be treated in radiotherapy because its anatomical location. Precision radiation dose part Quality Assurance Program as key factor this treatment. Thus, it very important ensure that output Linear Accelerator (LINAC) matched with result Treatment Planning System (TPS). This study used Siemens LINAC Type Primus MACH Series 5633 a set detectors for Nasopharynx analysis 8 field. The total 5,000 cGy divided into 25 fractions 200 per fraction. fields are irradiated target on detector device. It then accumulated PTW-Verisoft software plotting results obtained from tool PTW (phantom) which we have CT Scanned first PTW-Verisoft. From exposed radiation, corresponding 372 (100%) unsuitable 0 (0.00%). proved planning 100% match NPC method recomended implemented

Reflections on hospital quality assurance programs.

s and Reports 171 Evaluating quality means making value judgments about the results of technical and/or administrative procedures. It is important to understand that such value judgments should not be based on subjective personal preferences, but should be related to standards objectively set in advance. These standards or indicators are basic tools for the evaluation process. On the other hand...

Quality Assurance of LINAC by Analyzing the Profile of 6-MV and 10-MV Photon Beams Using Star Track Device

Introduction: According to the American Society of Radiation Oncology, all patients receive radiation therapy during their illness, where radiation is delivered by the medical linear accelerator (Linac). The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality assurance (QA) of the Linac in analyzing the used dose profile in the treatment of cancer tumors. Materi...

The influence of neutron contamination on pacemaker in photon beam radiotherapy by LINAC using the Monte Carlo method

  In radiation therapy with high-energy photon beams (E > 10 MV) neutrons are generated mainly in LINACs head thorough (γ,n) interactions. These neutrons affect the shielding requirements in radiation therapy rooms. According to the AAPMTG-34 report, photon absorbed dose of 10Gy can cause permanent damage to the pacemaker and the dose of 2Gy can make minor changes in the functioning of the pac...

The influence of neutron contamination on pacemaker in photon beam radiotherapy by LINAC using the Monte Carlo method

Introduction: In radiation therapy with high-energy photon beams (E > 7 MeV) neutrons are generated mainly in LINACs head thorough (γ, n) interactions. These neutrons affect the shielding requirements in radiation therapy rooms. According to the protocol TG-34, photon absorbed dose of 10Gy can cause permanent damage to the pacemaker and the dose of 2Gy can make minor changes in...
