Evaluation 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 کاملAlgorithms for Biological Dose Optimization in Ion Beam Radiotherapy
From 1997 until 2008 about 440 cancer patients were successfully treated in the ion therapy project at GSI. The patient treatment planning was performed with the software TRiP [1, 2]. A crucial part of the treatment planning is the particle number optimization with the goal to achieve a target dose distribution as close as possible to the prescribed biological dose distribution. The optimizatio...

متن کاملPatient handling system for carbon ion beam scanning therapy
Our institution established a new treatment facility for carbon ion beam scanning therapy in 2010. The major advantages of scanning beam treatment compared to the passive beam treatment are the following: high dose conformation with less excessive dose to the normal tissues, no bolus compensator and patient collimator/multi-leaf collimator, better dose efficiency by reducing the number of scatt...
