Dose Evaluation of Head and Neck Cancer IMRT Treatment Planning Based on Gamma Index Analysis of Varian Halcyon 2.0 Linac

نویسندگان

چکیده

Varian Halcyon 2.0 linear accelerator was launched and became available for clinical use in 2018. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the accuracy of exit fluence quality assurance (QA) head neck cancer treatment planning, pretreatment, treatment. The twenty plannings has been evaluated by conducting gamma analysis QA pretreatment each field composite using criteria index 3 %/3 mm 2 %/2 mm. results are average value criterion fields on actual gantry angle null with passing rate (GPR) over 99 % (range 99.78 %-99.95 %) total treatments consisted 2717 fractions. GPR were 99.32 97.74 indexes mm, respectively. In addition, composites 95.46 81.38 Based this result, GPRs ≈ pixels. This means prediction dose accurate. nearly 90 %, showing that effective creating plans complex cases.

Dose Distribution Analysis of Rapid Arc and Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy Plan in Head and Neck Cancer

Introduction: Globally, intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is considered as highly precise and accurate method of radiotherapy planning. This technique amplifies spatial dose distribution conformity by modulating the intensity of radiation beams in each sub-volume. Additionally, it can reduces the dose to surrounding critical organs and deliver the planned dose to targets with the nom...

Neutron Contamination Unexpected Dose in Varian LINAC

Introduction: Neutron contamination is very harmful for the patients receiving radiation therapy due to the high relative biological effect of neutrons. Medical linear accelerators head are made up of materials with high atomic numbers, and High-energy photons interaction with heavy materials can produce neutron contamination. In this study, neutron equivalent dose, neutron spe...
