The energy dependence of the dose response of EBT Gafchromic film is assessed over a broad energy range, from superficial to megavoltage X-rays. The film is auto-developing and sensitive, it provides accurate dose assessment of low doses (about 1-2 Gy) used in radiotherapy. The energy dependence of the response of EBT film was found to be very weak: the variations do not exceed 10% over the ran...
Recently, with the advent of linear accelerators equipped with on-board x-ray images and advanced imaging technologies, image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) has gained worldwide momentum in the radio therapeutic management of cancers in terms of volumetric information-based accurate tumor localization, real-time patient setup and margin reduction [1,2]. The involved technologies include digital rad...
Objective(s): The current systematic study has reviewed the therapeutic potential of gold nanoparticles as nano radiosensitizers for cancer radiation therapy. Materials and Methods: This study was done to review nano radiosensitizers. PubMed, Ovid Medline, Science Direct, SCOPUS, ISI web of knowledge, Springer databases were searched from 2000 to September 2013 to identify appropriate studies. ...
Cone-beam digital tomosynthesis (CBDT) is a new approach that was recently proposed for rapid tomographic imaging of soft-tissue targets in the radiotherapy treatment room. One of the potential problems in implementing CBDT using, for example, megavoltage (MV) X rays is the possibility of artifacts caused by image lag and ghosting of the X-ray detector used. In the present work, we developed a ...
background: megavoltage beams used in radiotherapy are contaminated with secondary electrons. different parts of linac head and air above patient act as a source of this contamination. this contamination can increase damage to skin and subcutaneous tissue during radiotherapy. monte carlo simulation is an accurate method for dose calculation in medical dosimetry and has an important role in opt...
Purpose: High-dose radiotherapy (RT) for localized prostate cancer requires careful consideration of target position changes and adjacent organs-at-risk (OARs), such as the rectum bladder. Therefore, daily monitoring OAR is crucial in minimizing interfractional dosimetric uncertainties. For efficient internal condition patients, we assessed feasibility an auto-segmentation OARs on acquired imag...
Volumetric imaging and planning for 3-dimensional (3D) conformal radiotherapy and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) have highlighted the need to the oncology community to better understand the geometric uncertainties inherent in the radiotherapy delivery process, including setup error (interfraction) as well as organ motion during treatment (intrafraction). This has ushered in the develop...
