A Fully-Automated Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy Planning System
We designed and implemented a linear programming based IMRT treatment plan generation technology that effectively and efficiently optimizes beam geometry as well as beam intensities. The core of the technology is a fluence map optimization model that approximates partial dose volume constraints using conditional value-at-risk constraints. Conditional value-at-risk constraints require careful tu...
متن کاملRadiotherapy treatment planning
In radical radiotherapy treatment we aim to accurately deliver a lethal dose of radiation to tumour cells while sparing any surrounding normal tissues. Radiotherapy treatment planning is the process undertaken to determine the most appropriate way to deliver the radiation in order to meet the clinical prescription. Rapid advances in technology and computing, particularly in relation to imaging,...
متن کاملEvaluation of treatment planning system monitor unit calculations for three intensity modulated radiotherapy delivery techniques
Background: We have validated the monitor unit calculations from a commercially available treatment planning system (TPS) for three intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) planning techniques for tangential breast irradiation by using ionization chamber measurements. Materials and Methods: Treatment plans were generated for forty-two breast patients by a forward planned field in field ...
متن کاملAssessment of Dose Calculation Accuracy of TiGRT Treatment Planning System for Physical Wedged fields in Radiotherapy
Introduction Wedge modifiers are commonly applied in external beam radiotherapy to change the dose distribution corresponding to the body contour and to obtain a uniform dose distribution within the target volume. Since the radiation dose delivered to the target must be within ±5% of the prescribed dose, accurate dose calculation by a treatment planning system (TPS) is important. The objective ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Dose Calculation Accuracy of Isogray Treatment Planning System in Craniospinal Radiotherapy
Introduction: Craniospinal radiotherapy is a therapeutic technique for central nervous system (CNS) tumors, which requires meticulous attention to technique and dosimetry.Treatment planning system (TPS) is one of the main equipment in radiotherapy; therefore, the evaluation of its accuracy is essential for dose calculation. The present study evaluates the validity of Isogray TPS in craniospinal...
