Direct Aperture Optimization for Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy: Two Calibrated Metaheuristics and Liver Cancer Case Study
Integrated treatment planning for cancer patients has high importance in intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). Direct aperture optimization (DAO) is one of the prominent approaches used in recent years to attain this goal. Considering a set of beam directions, DAO is an integrated approach to optimize the intensity and leaf position of apertures in each direction. In this paper, first, ...
متن کامل3D-Conformal Radiation Therapy and Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy Techniques for Laryngeal Cancer Taking Parotid Glands as Organ at Risk
Background: Three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) techniques are used for the treatment of patients with laryngeal cancer. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of these 2 treatment techniques on the planning target volume (PTV) (laryngeal cancer), dose homogeneity, dose of organs at...
متن کاملComparison 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 ...
متن کاملIntensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) technique for left breast cancer by different numbers of beam fields
Background: Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) can improve radiotherapy (RT) results by improving healthy tissue sparing. Additionally, IMRT provides more consistent dose deliveries and suppresses secondary tumor formation. RT is a principal treatment in breast cancer (BC). Aim: To evaluate the outcome of the Radiotherapy Plans (RTP) that use IMRT technique to left breast and other organs,...
متن کاملA method for standardizing intensity modulated radiation therapy planning optimization for nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Background: To investigate a method for standardizing intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) optimization for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), in order to reduce the influence of subjective factors. Materials and Methods: This study is based on example IMRT plans for NPC, which were randomly divided into data acquisition and data verification groups. Organs at risk (OARs) were analyzed for...
