Intensity 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 کاملTangential intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) to the intact breast
INTRODUCTION Inverse-planned intensity modulated radiation therapy (IP-IMRT) has potential benefits over other techniques for tangential intact breast radiotherapy. Possible benefits include increased homogeneity, faster planning time, less inter-planner variability and lower doses to organs at risk (OAR). We therefore conducted a pilot study of previously treated intact breast patients to comp...
متن کاملComparison of forward intensity modulated radiation therapy and two field tangential wedged beam techniques in radiotherapy of breast cancer: dosimetric and radiobiologic study
Introduction: This study aims to compare the dose delivery parameters and radiobiologic model prediction of Tumor Control Probability (TCP) of the FIMRT technique compared with rectangular two tangential wedged fields (2FW) in the treatment of breast cancer. Furthermore, reduction of the heart and lung dose in the FIMRT was studied via dosimetric parameters and radiobiologic mo...
متن کاملA dosimetric study of deep skin electron therapy with overlapping stationary radiation fields – A case report
Background: For radiotherapy of total skin including sub-cutaneous tissue up to a depth of 3 cm on the entire left leg of an adult (Angiosarcoma skin), a complex treatment with multiple stationary electron fields was planned at our clinic. The details of dosimetry, clinical dose measurements are presented. Materials and Methods: The treatment planned with 6 overlapping 9 MeV electron fields in ...
متن کاملIntensity-modulated radiation therapy to bilateral lower limb extremities concurrently: a planning case study
Non-melanomatous skin cancers represent 80% of all newly diagnosed cancers in Australia with basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) being the most common. A previously healthy 71-year-old woman presented with widespread and tender superficial skin cancers on the lower bilateral limbs. External beam radiation therapy through the use of intensity-modulated radiation therapy ...
