BACKGROUND Patient-specific dose verification for treatment planning in helical tomotherapy is routinely performed using a homogeneous virtual water cylindrical phantom of 30 cm diameter and 18 cm length (Cheese phantom). Because of this small length, treatment with total marrow irradiation (TMI) requires multiple deliveries of the dose verification procedures to cover a wide range of the targe...
New technologies in cancer radiotherapy need a more accurate computation of the dose delivered in the radiotherapeutical treatment plan, and it is important to integrate sophisticated mathematical models and advanced computing knowledge into the treatment planning (TP) process. We present some results about using Monte Carlo (MC) codes in dose calculation for treatment planning. A distributed c...
Background: Real cardiac phantoms are often used to assess the performance of software for gated single-photon emission computed tomography(SPECT). However, these phantoms have disadvantages in that they are not very similar to actual hearts and setting a perfusion defect is not easy. To overcome these problems, we developed a digital myocardial phantom, named%Myo-Simu'. The aims of this study ...
background diagnosis and accuracy in determining the exact location, extent and configuration of bony defects of the jaw are of utmost importance to determine prognosis, treatment planning and long-term preservation of teeth. if relatively accurate diagnosis can be established by radiography, proper treatment planning prior to treatment procedures will be possible. objectives the aim of the pre...
The Alabama Department of Transportation and the National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT) are planning to construct and operate an oval test track (accelerated pavement loading facility) to evaluate the performance of various hot mix asphalt (HMA) test pavements. Auburn University has purchased 310 acres of land approximately 15 minutes from the university for the test track. Construction ...
A model based on a specific phantom, called QuAArC, has been designed for the evaluation of planning and verification systems of complex radiotherapy treatments, such as volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). This model uses the high accuracy provided by the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation of log files and allows the experimental feedback from the high spatial resolution of films hosted in QuAArC...
introduction: breast conserving radiotherapy is one of the most common procedures performed in any radiation oncology department. a tangential parallel-opposed pair is usually used for this purpose. this technique is performed using 2d or 3d treatment planning systems. the aim of this study was to compare 2d treatment planning with 3d treatment planning in tangential irradiation in breast conse...
Introduction: Brachytherapy is one type of internal radiation therapy where radiation sources, which are usually encapsulated, are placed as close as possible to the tumor site or inside the patient's body. In this technique, it is important to determine dose distribution around the brachytherapy capsule to create optimal treatment plant. In this way, dosimetric parameters are...
PURPOSE To design a Head and Neck (H&N) anthropomorphic QA phantom that the Imaging and Radiation Oncology Core Houston (IROC-H) can use to verify the quality of intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) H&N treatments for institutions participating in NCI clinical trials. METHODS The phantom was created to serve as a remote auditing tool for IROC-H to evaluate an institution's IMPT planning ...
Introduction Radiotherapy with small fields is used widely in newly developed techniques. Additionally, dose calculation accuracy of treatment planning systems in small fields plays a crucial role in treatment outcome. In the present study, dose calculation accuracy of two commercial treatment planning systems was evaluated against Monte Carlo method. Materials and Methods Siemens Once or linea...
