The purpose of this study was to generate Monte Carlo computed dose distributions with the X-ray voxel Monte Carlo (XVMC) algorithm in the treatment of head and neck cancer patients using stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) and compare to heterogeneity corrected pencil-beam (PB-hete) algorithm. This study includes 10 head and neck cancer patients who underwent SRT re-irradiation using heterogeneity...
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare dose distributions from three different algorithms with the x-ray Voxel Monte Carlo (XVMC) calculations, in actual computed tomography (CT) scans for use in stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) of small lung cancers. METHODS Slow CT scan of 20 patients was performed and the internal target volume (ITV) was delineated on Pinnacle3. All plans were ...
Heterogeneity correction algorithms can have a large impact on the dose distributions of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for lung tumors. Treatment plans of 20 patients who underwent SBRT for lung tumors with the prescribed dose of 48 Gy in four fractions at the isocenter were reviewed retrospectively and recalculated with different heterogeneity correction algorithms: the pencil bea...
Purpose The purpose was to study comparative evaluation of calculated dose distribution by X-ray Voxel Monte Carlo (XVMC) for calculation in Acuros XB (AXB). commissioning and head neck volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) clinical cases were compared AXB Eclipse XVMC Monaco. Methods For TrueBeam at 6 MV, we the simple rectangle, heterogeneity correction, multileaf collimator (MLC) character...
A new GPU-based Monte Carlo dose calculation algorithm (GPUMCD), devel-oped by the vendor Elekta for the Monaco treatment planning system (TPS), is capable of modeling dose for both a standard linear accelerator and an Elekta MRI linear accelerator. We have experimentally evaluated this algorithm for a standard Elekta Agility linear accelerator. A beam model was developed in the Monaco TPS (res...
Aims: The aims of the present work are (1) to evaluate dose calculation accuracy of two commonly used algorithms for 15 MV small photon fields in a medium encompassing heterogeneity and (2) to compare them with measured results obtained from gafchromic film EBT2.Materials and Methods: Authors employed kailwood (Pinus Wallichiana) to mimic lung. Briefly, seven Kailwood plates, each measuring 25x...

PURPOSE To investigate dosimetric consequences of patient metal prosthesis in prostate radiotherapy, considering the body heterogeneity, metal artifacts, prostate daily displacements and target delineation. METHODS Three prostate patients with metal prosthesis were simulated with CT images and 3D ultrasound images. Conformal RT treatment plans were generated based on target volumes delineated...
