Photon Energy Spectrum Reconstruction Based on Monte Carlo and Measured Percentage Depth Dose in Accurate Radiotherapy
In accurate radiotherapy, energy spectra of high energy x-ray greatly affect the accuracy of dose calculation. Conventional discrete method failed to realize the stable solution, and the Schiff formula could not reflect the practical geometric shape of different linac system that showed the limitation to apply to other linacs. To obtain the photon energy spectra of linac in radiotherapy effecti...
متن کاملInvestigation of the dose enhancement effect of spherical bismuth oxide nanoparticles in external beam radiotherapy
Introduction: External radiotherapy is the most common method of radiotherapy which the most important problem associated with is that there is no difference between healthy and tumor tissues in dose absorption. One way to differentiate the dose sensitivity is to use metal-based nanoparticles. Bismuth oxide nanoparticles are good candidates for cancer radiotherapy. In this study, we investigate...
متن کاملNew formula for Calculation of Cobalt-60 Percent Depth Dose
Introduction: On the basis of percent depth dose (PDD) calculation, the application of dosimetry in radiotherapy has an important role to play in reducing the chance of tumor recurrence. The aim of this study is to introduce a new formula for calculating the centeral axis percent depth doses of Cobalt-60 beam. Materials and Methods: In the present study, based on ...
متن کاملAbstractID: 1109 Title: Integral Dose in External Beam Photon Radiotherapy
ID: 1109 Title: Integral Dose in External Beam Photon Radiotherapy Integral dose is the volume integral of the dose deposited in the patient and is equal to the mean dose times the volume. The integral dose is also the area under the curve of a differential dose absolute-volume histogram. It is widely believed that IMRT increases the integral dose to normal tissues as compared to conventional r...
متن کامل3D dose reconstruction in external beam radiotherapy using portal imaging
The verification of the dose delivered to a patient during radiation therapy is a particularly important step for ensuring treatment quality. This step, known as in vivo dosimetry can be realized using a bidimensional dosimeter named Electronic Portal Imaging Device (EPID). However, few methods enable the determination of an accurate and fully personalized 3D dose distribution for the most curr...
