متن کاملThe evaluation of lung doses for radiation pneumonia risk in stereotactic body radiotherapy: A comparison of intensity modulated radiotherapy, intensity modulated arc therapy, cyberknife and helical tomotherapy
Background: Radiation Pneumonia (RP) is one of the most extensive side effects in Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) of lung cancer. SBRT are performed by means of Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT), Intensity Modulated Arc Therapy (IMAT), CyberKnife (CK) or Helical Tomotherapy (HT) treatment methods. In this study, we performed a plan study to determine the plan parameter such as the M...
متن کاملClustering of nasopharyngeal carcinoma intensity modulated radiation therapy plans based on k-means algorithm and geometrical features
Background: The design of intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) plans is difficult and time-consuming. The retrieval of similar IMRT plans from the IMRT plan dataset can effectively improve the quality and efficiency of IMRT plans and automate the design of IMRT planning. However, the large IMRT plans datasets will bring inefficient retrieval result. Materials and Methods: An intensity-m...
