Background: The heterogeneous composition of the human body presents numerous tissue types and cavities with widely differing radiologic properties. The aim of the present work was to develop a low cost homogeneous and heterogeneous phantom and the absorbed dose were measured by ionization chamber for different radiotherapy treatment techniques and compared with treatment planning syst...
Introduction: Siliconeprosthetic implants are commonlyutilizedfor tissue replacement and breast augmentation after mastectomy. On the other hand, some patients require adjuvant radiotherapy in order to preventlocal-regional recurrence and increment ofthe overall survival. In case of recurrence, the radiation oncologist might have to irradiate the prosthesis.The aim of this study was to evaluate...
The first quality assurance process for validating dose-volume histogram data involving brachytherapy procedures in radiation therapy is presented. The process is demonstrated using both low dose-rate and high dose-rate radionuclide sources. A rectangular cuboid was contoured in five commercially available brachytherapy treatment planning systems. A single radioactive source commissioned for QA...
Accurate image registration for CT-CT, CT-MRI for brain is necessary to obtain clinical information from diagnostic images and translate the information to radiotherapy treatment planning CT images. Mostly in cases of Post-Surgery cases that have been operated outside hospitals and are being referred for Post-Operative adjuvant Radiotherapy to our Centre, where the pre-operative volume is very ...
Telecobalt machine is one of the essential equipment needed in many cancer centers and still prominently used for the treatment of a variety of cancer cases in developing countries. This study aims to evaluate the impact of tissue heterogeneity corrections on 3D treatment planning system (Prowess). The human body contains a variety of tissues and cavities which vary widely in their physical and...
background: in the current study the effect of shielded colpostat on rectum received dose was calculated in cervical brachytherapy using monte carlo (mc) method. materials and methods: two 60co sources of gzp6 brachytherapy unit used for intracavitary treatments were simulated using mcnpx monte carlo code. also the two types of colpostats including shielded and unshielded were simulated inside ...
BACKGROUND Carbon fiber (CF) is now the material of choice for radiation therapy couch tops. Initial designs included side metal bars for rigidity; however, with the advent of IGRT, involving on board imaging, new thicker CF couch tops without metal bars have been developed. The new design allows for excellent imaging at the expense of potentially unacceptable dose attenuation and perturbation....
The purpose of this study was to develop a simplified methodology that will produce Monte Carlo (MC) dose distribution for proton therapy which can be used as a clinical aid in determining the adequacy of proton plans produced from the treatment planning system (TPS). The Geant4 Monte Carlo toolkit was used for all simulations. The geometry of the double scatter nozzle in the simulation was a s...
INTRODUCTION Enhanced dynamic wedges (EDW) are known to increase drastically the radiation therapy treatment efficiency. This paper has the aim to compare linear array measurements of EDW with the calculations of treatment planning system (TPS) and the electronic portal imaging device (EPID) for 15 MV photon energy. MATERIALS AND METHODS The range of different field sizes and wedge angles (fo...
introduction wedge modifiers are commonly applied in external beam radiotherapy to change the dose distribution corresponding to the body contour and to obtain a uniform dose distribution within the target volume. since the radiation dose delivered to the target must be within ±5% of the prescribed dose, accurate dose calculation by a treatment planning system (tps) is important. the objective ...
