Diode calibration for dose determination in total body irradiation
Background: Total Body Irradiation (TBI) is different from standard radiotherapy in many aspects, so it is not easy to predict the delivered dose to the patient under TBI treatment. Diode dosimetry procedures for surface dose reading can help to define variations of the actually delivered dose from the prescribed one. The aim of this study was to describe the measurements made to calib...
متن کاملTotal body irradiation for myelomatosis.
In the first myeloma trial of the M.R.C. working party on leukaemia in adults the deaths that have occurred can be attributed to unrelated diseases (5%h-for example, cosonary thrombosis, etc.); causes indirectly telated to the tumour (80,for example, pneumonia due to the immune paresis); no obvious response of the tumour to treatment (27/); and finally relapse of the tumour after an initial res...
متن کاملVolumetric modulated arc therapy for total body irradiation: A feasibility study using Pinnacle3 treatment planning system and Elekta Agility™ linac
A study was undertaken to explore the use of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) for total body irradiation (TBI). Five patient plans were created in Pinnacle3 using nine 6 MV photon dynamic arcs. A dose of 12 Gy in six fractions was prescribed. The planning target volume (PTV) was split into four subsections for the head, chest, abdomen, and pelvis. The head and chest beams were optimized ...
متن کاملFabrication of anthropomorphic phantoms for use in total body photon irradiation and total skin electron irradiation studies
Introduction: Total Skin Electron Therapy (TSET) and Total Body Irradiation (TBI) are kinds of treatment which use electron and photon beams to treat special types of cancers. The aim of these techniques are to deliver uniform dose to the entire skin while minimizing delivered dose to organs at risk. To check the homogeneity of dose delivery in TBI and TSET, using a humanoid ph...
متن کاملVerification of Monitor unit calculations for eclipse Treatment Planning System by in- house developed spreadsheet
Introduction: Computerized treatment planning is a rapidly evolving modality that depends on hardware and software efficiency. Despite ICRU recommendations suggesting 5% deviation in dose delivery the overall uncertainty shall be less than 3.5% as suggested by B.J. Minjnheer. J. In house spreadsheets are developed by the medical physicists to cross-verify the dose calculated by the Treatment Pl...
