Interfractional Variation of Radiation Target and Adaptive Radiotherapy for Totally Resected Glioblastoma
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of volume adapted re-planning for radiotherapy (RT) after gross total resection (GTR) for glioblastoma. Nineteen patients with glioblastoma who underwent GTR and postoperative RT were analyzed. The volumes of the surgical cavity on computed tomography (CT) obtained one day after GTR (CT0), the first RT simulation CT (sim-CT1), and the second simulation C...
متن کاملInterfractional anatomic variation in patients treated with respiration‐gated radiotherapy
As quality assurance for respiration-gated treatments using the Varian RPM system, we monitor interfractional diaphragm variation throughout treatment using extra anterior-posterior (AP) portal images. We measure the superior-inferior (SI distance between one or more bony landmarks and the ipsilateral diaphragm dome in each such radiograph and calculate its difference, D, from the corresponding...
متن کاملGlioblastoma growth modeling for radiotherapy target delineation
Radiotherapy treatment planning requires a localization of the tumor within the patient. This is challenging to accomplish for microscopic infiltrative spread of disease that is not visible on current imaging modalities. Prime examples for infiltrative tumors are gliomas. With the help of mathematical models, common growth characteristics of gliomas, which are known from histopathological studi...
متن کاملAssessment of interfractional variation of the breast surface following conventional patient positioning for whole‐breast radiotherapy
The purpose of this study was to quantify the variability of the breast surface position when aligning whole-breast patients to bony landmarks based on MV portal films or skin marks alone. Surface imaging was used to assess the breast surface position of 11 whole-breast radiotherapy patients, but was not used for patient positioning. On filmed fractions, AlignRT v5.0 was used to capture the pat...
متن کاملEvaluation of interfractional variation of the centroid position and volume of internal target volume during stereotactic body radiotherapy of lung cancer using cone‐beam computed tomography
The purpose of this study was to determine interfractional variation of the centroid position and volume of internal target volume (ITV) during stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) of lung cancer. From January 2014 to August 2014, a total of 32 patients with 37 primary or metastatic lung tumors were enrolled in our study. All patients received SBRT treatment in 4-5 fractions to a median d...
