چکیده
ESTRO 35 2016 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ cm amplitude. A Fourier Transform (FT) was used to calculate the MTF of the images for the static and moving phantom. The MTF of five commonly used LOG filters were calculated. The response of the filters was compared with the MTF of the images to determine if the motion would affect the response of the filter.

Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Lung Lesions using Multiple Phase 3D-CT Based on the Analysis of Radiobiological Parameters
Introduction: Planning target volume (PTV) is generated from internal treatment volume (ITV) using four-dimensional computed tomography (4D-CT) for enhanced therapeutic gain in the stereotactic body radiotherapy for lung lesions (SBRT-Lung). This study aimed to propose a strategy to generate ITV on multiple-phase 3D-CT and enhance therapeutic gain in SBRT-Lung. <stron...
متن کاملInvestigation of lung normal tissue doses in lung tumors radiation therapy using both gated and conventional radiotherapy
Introduction: In radiation therapy of lung tumors, respiratory motion causes target moving, so a larger margin is needed to cover the clinical target volume (CTV). With the margin increasing, a larger volume of normal tissue will be exposed to high-dose. In this study, dosimetric parameters of normal lung tissue were compared between gated and conventional radiotherapy (RT), u...
متن کاملA dosimetric comparison of stereotactic body radiation therapy techniques for lung cancer: robotic versus conventional linac‐based systems
The aim of this study is to compare the dosimetric characteristics of robotic and conventional linac-based SBRT techniques for lung cancer, and to provide planning guidance for each modality. Eight patients who received linac-based SBRT were retrospectively included in this study. A dose of 60 Gy given in three fractions was prescribed to each target. The Synchrony Respiratory Tracking System a...
متن کاملThe colossal circumvention of the lung lesion during lung stereotaxy
This is a case report on stereotaxic (Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy-SBRT) for lung cancer located in the left lower lobe (Segment 6, S6). There have been no reports on marked displacement of the peripheral lung cancer during radiotherapy. A pulmonary nodule was discovered on computed tomography (CT) conducted for a persistent cough in an 87-year-old male. According to diagnostic imaging, this ...

This retrospective study explored 2-[18F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) as an aid in target delineation among a first-group of five patients with single or multiple moving lung tumors planned for Vero stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Computed tomography (CT)-based free-breathing, end-inspiration, and end-expiration lung target volumes generated a sing...
