Abstract Background : Beam-hardening artifacts in CT image set of patient with a hip prosthesis cause difference between dose distributions resulted by treatment planning system (TPS) algorithms and actual dose distribution in patient body. In this study, dose distributions of TPS algorithms were compared with the results of Monte Carlo simulations of Titanium and Steal as a h...
EUS-guided interstitial brachytherapy is promising in the treatment of unresectable malignant carcinoma adjacent to the digestive tract. The feasible treatment plan is not established. Thus, our study aimed to develop a novel treatment plan and evaluate the feasibility in patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer. A total of 42 patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer (stage III: n = 18;...
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 ...
background: the monte carlo (mc) method is not only used for dose calculations around brachytherapy sources but also for benchmarking treatment planning systems (tps) calculations. materials and methods: three 60co sources of gzp6 brachytherapy unit were simulated using mcnp4c mc code. the radial dose functions were calculated by mc method and gzp6 tps and were compared. results: there was a go...
Background and purpose: The human body is composed of various inhomogenous tissues with a variety of physical and radiological properties. These inhomogeneities could change isodose distributions, increase the probability of geometric errors, and eventually lead to missing of the target irradiation or incorrect isodose coverage in conformal radiation therapy (CRT) due to the uncertainties resul...
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 ...
MIM Symphony is a recently introduced low-dose-rate prostate brachytherapy treatment planning system (TPS). We evaluated the dosimetric and planning accuracy of this new TPS compared to the universally used VariSeed TPS. For dosimetric evaluation of the MIM Symphony version 5.4 TPS, we compared dose calculations from the MIM Symphony TPS with the formalism recommended by the American Associatio...
Introduction: The objective of this work is to study the ability of MRI normoxic polymer gel dosimetry system to be used to verify the calculated dose distribution, in a simple geometry, in clinical radiotherapy. Materials and Methods: Initially, 2 liters of the normoxic MAGAT polymer gel was prepared and then poured into two cylindrical Perspex phantom (simu...
High atomic number and density of dental implants leads to major problems at providing an accurate dose distribution in radiotherapy and contouring tumors and organs caused by the artifact in head and neck tumors. The limits and deficiencies of the algorithms using in the treatment planning systems can lead to large errors in dose calculation, and this may adversely affect the patient's treatme...
Dosimetric accuracy of the cone‐beam CT‐based treatment planning of the Vero system: a phantom study
We report an investigation on the accuracy of dose calculation based on the cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of the nonbowtie filter kV imaging system of the Vero linear accelerator. Different sets of materials and tube voltages were employed to generate the Hounsfield unit lookup tables (HLUTs) for both CBCT and fan-beam CT (FBCT) systems. The HLUTs were then implemented for the dos...
