Introducing a bony composite as tissue equivalent for radiotherapy phantoms
The use of a device that simulates the actual condition, as well as being equivalent to the human body in materials and tissues, and having the capability of acting like internal motions of human body is necessary to investigate and simulate the motion of a tumor in radiotherapy and to evaluate dosimetrical coverage of the dynamic target. This device which is called the dynamic phantom should s...
متن کاملAssessment of Dose Calculation Accuracy of TiGRT Treatment Planning System for Physical Wedged fields in Radiotherapy
Introduction Wedge modifiers are commonly applied in external beam radiotherapy to change the dose distribution corresponding to the body contour and to obtain a uniform dose distribution within the target volume. Since the radiation dose delivered to the target must be within ±5% of the prescribed dose, accurate dose calculation by a treatment planning system (TPS) is important. The objective ...
متن کاملThe Relevance of DICOM-RT in Radiotherapy Information Systems - Preliminary Results from a National Survey
Currently, in radiotherapy (RT) departments, there are different manufacturers and stand-alone information systems (IS) for single-purpose applications. These systems have most of the data distributed through different IS. The DICOM-RT extension has six objects that provide a standardized way of transferring the information circulating in the external beam RT. The aim of this study is to assess...
متن کاملA design of a DICOM‐RT‐based tool box for nonrigid 4D dose calculation
The study was aimed to introduce a design of a DICOM-RT-based tool box to facilitate 4D dose calculation based on deformable voxel-dose registration. The computational structure and the calculation algorithm of the tool box were explicitly discussed in the study. The tool box was written in MATLAB in conjunction with CERR. It consists of five main functions which allow a) importation of DICOM-R...
