In vivo dosimetry and shielding disk alignment verification by EBT3 GAFCHROMIC film in breast IOERT treatment
Intraoperative electron radiation therapy (IOERT) cannot usually benefit, as conventional external radiotherapy, from software systems of treatment planning based on computed tomography and from common dose verify procedures. For this reason, in vivo film dosimetry (IVFD) proves to be an effective methodology to evaluate the actual radiation dose delivered to the target. A practical method for ...
متن کاملIn vivo dosimetry with diodes in rectal cancer patients
Background. Success of radiotherapy relies on accurate dose delivery. In vivo dosimetry improves control of treatment quality. Patients and methods. In vivo dosimetry with commercial diodes was performed in 209 rectal cancer patients treated with four-field box technique. The diodes measured either entrance or exit dose in each treatment field. The results were compared to the planned values an...
متن کاملIn vivo dosimetry of intraoral stent using TLD during external photon beam radiotherapy of oral cavity
Introduction: Individual oral stent is a mouth-opening device that used in head and neck cancer radiotherapy with the intention of decreasing radiation dose to health tissues. The aim of this study was to check the dose delivered to both the hard palate and tongue when patient uses the stent during radiotherapy of tongue carcinoma. Methods and materials<stron...
متن کاملPrecise film dosimetry for stereotactic radiosurgery and stereotactic body radiotherapy quality assurance using Gafchromic™ EBT3 films
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dosimetric uncertainty associated with Gafchromic™ (EBT3) films and establish a practical and efficient film dosimetry protocol for Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) and Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT). METHOD AND MATERIALS EBT3 films were irradiated at each of seven different dose levels between 1 and 15 Gy with open fields and standar...
متن کاملIn-vivo dosimetry with Gafchromic films for multi-isocentric VMAT irradiation of total marrow lymph-nodes: a feasibility study
BACKGROUND Total marrow (lymph-nodes) irradiation (TMI-TMLI) by volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) was shown to be feasible by dosimetric feasibility studies. It was demonstrated that several partially overlapping arcs with different isocenters are required to achieve the desired coverage of the hematopoietic or lymphoid tissues targets and to spare the neighbouring healthy tissues. The ef...
