[ 1 ] - بررسی دز رسیده به بافت سالم ریه در پرتودرمانی تومورهای ریوی به دو روش پرتودرمانی گیتد و معمولی
In radiation therapy of lung tumors, respiratory motion causes target moving, so a larger margin is needed to cover the 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), using the NCAT digital phantom. Different series of CT im...
[ 2 ] - Evaluation of Dose Calculation Algorithms Accuracy for Eclipse, PCRT3D, and Monaco Treatment Planning Systems Using IAEA TPS commissioning tests in a Heterogeneous Phantom
Introduction: The accuracy of dose calculation algorithm (DCA) is highly considered in the radiotherapy sequences. This study aims at assessing the accuracy of five dose calculation algorithms in tissue inhomogeneity corrections, based on the International Atomic Energy Agency TEC-DOC 1583. Material and Methods: A heterogeneous phantom was sc...
[ 3 ] - Dosimetric Evaluation of Dose calculation algorithms of Monaco Treatment Planning System in the heterogeneities area
Introduction: In radiation therapy, the accuracy of dose calculations by a treatment planning system (TPS) is important to achieve tumor control and to spare normal tissue. Treatment planning system calculations in the heterogeneous situation may present significant inaccuracies. In this study, three different dose calculation algorithms, pencil beam (PB), collapsed cone (CC), ...
[ 4 ] - Investigation 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...
[ 5 ] - The influence of neutron contamination on pacemaker in photon beam radiotherapy by LINAC using the Monte Carlo method
Introduction: In radiation therapy with high-energy photon beams (E > 7 MeV) neutrons are generated mainly in LINACs head thorough (γ, n) interactions. These neutrons affect the shielding requirements in radiation therapy rooms. According to the protocol TG-34, photon absorbed dose of 10Gy can cause permanent damage to the pacemaker and the dose of 2Gy can make minor changes in...
[ 6 ] - Comparison of ScintSim1 and Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation codes for optical photon transport in thick segmented scintillator arrays
Introduction: Arrays of segmented scintillation crystals are useful in megavoltage x-ray imaging detectors for image-guided radiotherapy. Most previous theoretical studies on these detectors have modelled only ionizing-radiation transport. Scintillation light also affects detector performance. ScintSim1, our previously reported optical Monte Carlo code for such detector...
[ 7 ] - Management of bulky high-grade pleomorphic sarcoma using grid therapy technique
In the present study, a case was reported concerning a patient with a bulky extremity soft tissue sarcoma treated with spatially fractionated Grid therapy and then followed by standard external beam radiotherapy. Treatment was performed using a Grid block to deliver 15 Gy in one fraction. There was one week interval break before EBRT treatment with 50 Gy in 25 fractions for the neoadjuvant exte...
