The Radiotherapy treatment planning optimization process based on a quasi-Newton algorithm with an object function containing dose-volume constraints is not guaranteed to converge when the dose value in the dose-volume constraint is a critical value of the dose distribution. This is caused by finite differentiability of the dose-volume histogram at such values. A closer look near such values re...
The data presented here were originally collected for the research project "CT-Scan processing and analysis in patient with breast cancer after radiotherapy". Also, it reported in our study "Prediction of Lung Tissue Damage by Evaluating Clinical and Dosimetric Parameters in Breast Cancer Patients" (Hasanabdali et al., 2016) [1]. This article describes and directly links to 52 subjects referred...
Purpose The aim of this study was to compare the implant quality between intraoperatively built custom-linked seeds (IBCL) and loose seeds (LS) retrospectively. Material and methods This study included 74 prostate cancer patients who were treated with permanent prostate brachytherapy (PPB) using IBCL (n = 37) or LS (n = 37) between July 2014 and June 2016. Dose-volume histogram (DVH) paramete...
Beam orientation optimization (BOO) is a key component in the process of intensity modulated radiation therapy treatment planning. It determines to what degree one can achieve a good treatment plan in the subsequent plan optimization process. In this paper, we have developed a BOO algorithm via adaptive l(2, 1)-minimization. Specifically, we introduce a sparsity objective function term into our...
In CT anatomy-based inverse treatment planning of interstitial high-dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy planning, the planning target volume (PTV) delineated by the radiation oncologist includes the applicator volume. The applicator volume can be eliminated with the help of two methods: one based on Boolean operations and the other using the erasing option of the application software. Both methods ar...
PURPOSE To critically evaluate and compare three worst case optimization methods that have been previously employed to generate intensity-modulated proton therapy treatment plans that are robust against systematic errors. The goal of the evaluation is to identify circumstances when the methods behave differently and to describe the mechanism behind the differences when they occur. METHODS The...
PURPOSE To compare prostate contours on conventional stepping transverse image acquisitions with those on twister-based sagittal image acquisitions. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty prostate cancer patients who were planned to have permanent interstitial prostate brachytherapy were prospectively accrued. A transrectal ultrasonography probe was inserted, with the patient in lithotomy position. Tran...
We compared the prostate volumes and rectal doses calculated by CT and CT-MRI fusion, and verified the usefulness of CT-MRI fusion in three-dimensional (3D) radiotherapy planning for localized prostate cancer. Three observers contoured the prostate and rectum of 13 patients with CT and CT-MRI fusion. Prostate delineations were classified into three sub-parts, and the volumes and distances to th...
Recently, Eclipse treatment planning system (TPS) version 8.8 was upgraded to the latest version 13.6. It is customary that the vendor gives training on how to upgrade the existing software to the new version. However, the customer is provided less inner details about changes in the new software version. According to manufacturer, accuracy of point dose calculations and irregular treatment plan...
