BACKGROUND Kilovoltage Intrafraction Monitoring (KIM) is a method which determines the three-dimensional position of the prostate from two-dimensional kilovoltage (kV) projections taken during linac based radiotherapy treatment with real-time feedback. Rectal displacement devices (RDDs) allow for improved rectal dosimetry during prostate cancer treatment. This study used KIM to perform a prelim...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE CT is a frequent examination that is performed using ionizing radiation. We sought to assess image-quality changes on CT scans of the head when the radiation dose is reduced by changing tube current and kilovoltage. METHODS A formalin-fixed cadaver was examined in conventional and helical mode by use of two CT-scanners. Surface dose was measured with standard scanning p...
PURPOSE Cone beam CT is increasingly being used for daily patient positioning verification during radiation therapy treatments. The daily use of CBCT could lead to accumulated patient doses higher than the older technique of weekly portal imaging. There have been several studies focusing on measurement or calculation of the patient dose from CBCT recently. METHODS This study investigates the ...
Lack of underlying material can lead to dose reduction in kilovoltage radiotherapy treatments because of backscatter reduction. Conversely, the use of lead shielding can lead to large dose enhancement close to the lead interface. GAFCHROMIC film has been shown to be of use in verification of local backscatter factors compared to reference data in codes of practice, but careful handling and mult...
Highly crystalline titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2-NPs) are synthesized via a simple hydrothermal technique. After structural and compositional analysis, the as-synthesized unmodified TiO2-NPs tested for improvement in two modes of kilovoltage radiation therapy single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed (CT). Our results show that provide an observable enhancement CT scan ...
