This note presents a method that recalculates the coordinates of the isocentre for patients undergoing stereotactic radiotherapy to the brain with a relocatable head frame based on a pre-treatment CT scan. The method was evaluated by comparing initial stereotactic coordinates of the isocentre with the recalculated coordinates for eight single-fraction patients. These patients had the Brown-Robe...

introduction superficial x-ray therapy is one of the most important treatment methods in radiotherapy especially in the treatment of superficial skin lesions (up to 300 kvp). quality of the x-ray beam that can be expressed by half-value layer (hvl), are important indices for this type of treatment effective energy of photon and homogeneity coefficient (hc). materials and methods the hc of the s...

An accurate means of determining and correcting for daily patient setup errors is important to the cancer outcome in radiotherapy. While many tools have been developed to detect setup errors, difficulty may arise in accurately adjusting the patient to account for the rotational error components. A novel, automated method to correct for rotational patient setup errors in helical tomotherapy is p...

Treatment of the wrong body part due to incorrect setup is among the leading types of errors in radiotherapy. The purpose of this paper is to report an efficient automatic patient safety system (PSS) to prevent gross setup errors. The system consists of a pair of charge-coupled device (CCD) cameras mounted in treatment room, a single infrared reflective marker (IRRM) affixed on patient or immob...

Dose distributions in HN-IMRT are complex and may be sensitive to the treatment uncertainties. The goals of this study were to evaluate: 1) dose differences between plan and actual delivery and implications on margin requirement for HN-IMRT with rigid setup errors; 2) dose distribution complexity on setup error sensitivity; and 3) agreement between average dose and cumulative dose in fractionat...
