OBJECTIVE To evaluate the value of CT common rail technique for application in intensity-modulated radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). METHODS Twenty-seven NPC patients underwent Somatom CT scans using the Siemens CTVision system prior to the commencement of the radiotherapy sessions. The acquired CT images were registered with the planning CT images using the matching function o...
A clinical target volume (CTV) to planning target volume (PTV) margin recipes was routinely used to ensure dose was actually delivered to target for all (most) patients. Currently used margin recipes were associated with only translational set-up errors in radiotherapy. However, when set-up errors extended to six-degree (6D) scope (three translational and three rotational set-up errors), margin...
During the radiotherapy process, the emergence of set-up errors is nearly inevitable. Because set-up errors were not detected and corrected daily, planned target volumes were formed by expanding the clinical target volume according to each unit's experience. We optimized the margins of clinical and planned target volumes during administration of intensity-modulated radiotherapy for nasopharynge...
Background and purpose: In-vivo dosimetry is used to ensure accurate delivery of dose to tumors during radiotherapy. This study aimed at measuring the entrance doses without the build-up cap for patients undergoing 15MV radiotherapy and determining the percentage errors between doses measured by films and those calculated with a treatment planning system (TPS). Materials and methods: The stu...
the present study was concerned with exploring the frequency and linguistic focus of corrective feedback types given by novice and experienced female teachers working with young learners and compared it with those of elementary classes for adults. moreover, it aimed at measuring learners’ acknowledgement of teachers’ corrective feedback in the form of uptake in relation to linguistic coverage o...
An external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) using megavoltage beam of linear accelerator is usually the treatment of choice in cancer patients. The goal of EBRT is to deliver the prescribed dose to the target volume, with as low as possible dose to the surrounding healthy tissue. A large number of procedures and different professions involved in radiotherapy, uncertainty of equipment and daily patient...
In the past, the Radiological Physics Center (RPC) has developed standard sets of photon depth-dose and wedge-factor data, specific to the make, model, and wedge design of the linear accelerator (linac). In this paper, the RPC extends the same concept to electron-cone ratios. Since 1987, the RPC has measured and documented cone-ratio (CR) values during on-site dosimetry review visits to institu...
introduction patient set-up optimization is required in radiotherapy to fill the accuracy gap between personalized treatment planning and uncertainties in the irradiation set-up. in this study, we aimed to develop a new method based on neural network to estimate patient geometrical setup using 4-dimensional (4d) xcat anthropomorphic phantom. materials and methods to access 4d modeling of motion...
