PURPOSE Using a retrospective analysis of treatment plans submitted from multiple institutions accruing patients to the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) 0236 non-small-cell stereotactic body radiotherapy protocol, the present study determined the dose prescription and critical structure constraints for future stereotactic body radiotherapy lung protocols that mandate density-corrected do...
Radiotherapy of pregnant cancer patients is not common, but when applied accurate assessment the fetus dose required, especially since treatment planning systems are able and do allow out-of-field doses. Proton therapy significantly reduces doses, such as to fetus, compared photon radiotherapy techniques could be promising for patients. Within this study Monte Carlo calculations performed on th...
introduction: the purpose of this work was to study the ability of mri normoxic polymer gel dosimetry for evaluating the dose distribution in hdr brachytherapy of esophagial cancer at imam reza brachytherapy center (mashhad, iran). materials and methods: initially, 2liters of normoxic gel (magic) was fabricated and then poured into 12 calibration test tubes and placed in a perspex walled phanto...
the aim of this study is to provide a control software system, based on monte carlo simulation, and calculations of dosimetric parameters of standard and wedge radiation fi elds, using a monte carlo method. gate version 6.1 (opengate collaboration), was used to simulate a compact 6 mv linear accelerator system. in order to accelerate the calculations, the phase-space technique and cluster compu...
Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma is a very frustrating disease. Since the tumor infiltrates the brain stem, surgical removal is often impossible. For conventional radiotherapy, the dose constraint of the brain stem impedes attempts at further dose escalation. Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), a targeted radiotherapy, carries the potential to selectively irradiate tumors with an adequate dos...
background: accurate small radiation field dosimetry is essential in modern radiotherapy techniques such as stereotactic radiosurgery (srs) and intensity modulated radiotherapy (imrt). precise measurement of dosimetric parameters such as beam profile, percentage depth doses and output factor of these beams are complicated due to the electron disequilibrium and the steep dose gradients. in the p...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The Medical Physics Division of the Portuguese Physics Society (DFM_SPF) in collaboration with the IAEA, carried out a national auditing project in radiotherapy, between September 2011 and April 2012. The objective of this audit was to ensure the optimal usage of treatment planning systems. The national results are presented in this paper. MATERIAL AND METHODS The audit...
background: tangential irradiation of intact breast is one of the most common procedures performed in any radiotherapy center. this method is performed by using 2d and 3d treatment planning. the aim of this study was to compare 2d with 3d plans in breast conserving radiotherapy. homogeneity of isodose, and lung received dose were compared. materials and methods: twenty patients with breast canc...
Dose-effect calculations used in the planning of modern radiotherapy (RT) involving normal lung or cardiac tissue rely on structural imaging techniques, such as CT, as the basis for measuring and predicting dose-response. However, more accurate methods for predicting dose-response may result if information on the locoregional functional status of the irradiated organ(s) is included in the compu...
