Patients with early stage high-risk prostate cancer (prostate specific antigen > 20, Gleason score > 7) are at high risk of recurrence following prostate cancer irradiation. Radiation dose escalation to the prostate may improve biochemical-free survival for these patients. However, high rectal and bladder dose with conventional three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy may lead to excessive gast...

BACKGROUND Radiotherapy is an important treatment of choice for breast cancer patients after breast- conserving surgery, and we compare the feasibility of using dual arc volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT2), single arc volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT1) and Multi-beam Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (M-IMRT) on patients after breast-conserving surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty ...

Aim: To dosimetrically compare and evaluate Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) versus conventional five field radiotherapy (5FCRT) in postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT). Material and Methods: This study included 25 consecutive patients for PMRT. Target volumes (chest wall, axilla, supraclavicular regions [SCF]) and normal structures (lungs, heart, spinal cord, opposite breast) were de...

Background: We aimed to compare field-in-field technique (FIF) with conformal tangential field radiotherapy (CRT) in terms of dosimetric benefits for early stage breast cancer radiotherapy. Materials and Methods: Twenty consecutive left-side breast cancer patients who underwent breast-conserving surgery were included to the study. For each patient, two different treatment plans were cr...

Radiotherapy planning studies have confirmed dosimetric advantages of intensity-modulated radiation therapy over conventional and conformal radiation therapy. Utilization of intensity-modulated radiation therapy is ideal in head and neck cancer patients. Critical structures can be spared due to sharp dose gradients and limited organ motion with correct immobilization. Initial clinical results h...

Introduction: The complex geometry of breast and also lung and heart inhomogeneities near the planning target volume (PTV) result in perturbations in dose distribution. This problem can result in overdosage or underdosage in the match region of the three treatment fields. The purpose of this study is to create a homogeneous dose distribution in the match region between the supraclavicular and t...

For a start, although integral dose is generally assumed to be improved by the use of higher energy photons, there is concern that some treatment planning systems might not effectively model the “beam narrowing” at depth observed with high energy photons in the small radiation beamlets encountered in IMRT. This phenomenon is caused by lateral beam degradation due to penumbra widening (8); when ...
