Dosimetric verification of pre-treatment intensity modulated radiation therapy in the commissioning process
Background: Commissioning tests are recommended before implementing Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy. This study evaluated five different plans of IMRT mocks for different modulation indices. Materials and Methods: IMRT tests were done in slab phantom for both 6MV and 15 MV photon energies using a 2D array ion chamber dosimeter. Results: The acceptance criteria were based on 3% /3mm. All t...
متن کاملMicrobeam radiation therapy.
It is proposed to carry out radiotherapy and radiosurgery for brain lesions by crossfiring an array of parallel, closely spaced microbeams of synchrotron-generated x rays several times through an isocentric target, each microbeam in the array having an approximately 25-microns-wide adjustable-height rectangular cross section. The following inferences from the known tissue sparing of 22-MeV deut...
متن کاملAnalysis of Hip Joint Dose in Prostate Cancer Radiation Therapy: A Dosimetric Comparison of Treatment Plans
Background and purpose: Radiation therapy as a part of cancer treatment is used in almost 50-60% of involved cases. In prostate cancer radiation therapy, a large volume of pelvis is irradiated, so, it is necessary to preserve sensitive organs around the treatment area, especially rectum and bladder. In this study, some dosimetric parameters such as minimum dose (Dmin), maximum dose (Dmax), mean...
متن کاملDosimetric characteristics of a cubic‐block‐piled compensator for intensity‐modulated radiation therapy in the Pinnacle radiotherapy treatment planning system
We examined the dose distributions generated by Pinnacle3 (Philips Radiation Oncology Systems, Milpitas, CA) for intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plans using a cubic-block-piled compensator as the intensity modulator for 4-MV and 10-MV photon beams. The Pinnacle treatment planning system (TPS) uses an algorithm in which only the physical density of the absorber is required for calculatin...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
