Introduction: The close proximity of the rectum tissue to the prostate gland results in rectal toxicity during prostate radiotherapy. Rectal Retractor (RR) is a rectal displacement technique that inserts into the rectum, as a result, the lateral and dorsal part of the rectal wall push away from high dose areas. The aim of this study was to investigate the dosimetric consequence...
Background: In prostate radiotherapy, changes in the volume of the bladder and rectum can influence dose delivery. In this study, cone-beam computerised tomography (CBCT) imaging was used to assess volumetric, and corresponding radiation dosimetric changes, for the bladder and rectum in patients with prostate cancer treated using VMAT. Materials and Methods: Treatment planning computed tomograp...
( he absolute risks of a radiation-induced second cancer mong long-term radiotherapy survivors are not large, typcally a few percent in older patients (1–4). Hence the very eal concern, expressed by Kendal et al. (5) in this issue, hat prostate cancer patients may be unduly influenced in heir treatment decision by unbalanced media reports of econd-cancer risks. It is certainly the responsibilit...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Rectal toxicity presents a significant limiting factor in prostate radiotherapy regimens. This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of an implantable and biodegradable balloon specifically designed to protect rectal tissue during radiotherapy by increasing the prostate-rectum interspace. PATIENTS AND METHODS Balloons were transperineally implanted, under transrectal ...
Adenocarcinoma of the prostate and rectum are common male pelvic cancers and may present synchronously or metachronously due to their anatomic proximity. The treatment of rectal or prostate cancer (in particular surgery and/or radiotherapy) may alter the presentation, incidence and management should a metachronous tumour develop. This review focuses on the interaction between prostatic and rec...
ionization radiation caused to incidence of complications in the exposed organs. in prostate radiotherapy, rectum and bladder have been radiated unwantedly and indicated some complications during and after treatment. the purpose of present study is to consider and to compare clinical complications of rectum and bladder in custom block and mlc for 3- d conformal radiotherapy, in order to determi...
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...
OBJECTIVE Radiotherapy for prostate cancer does not explicitly take into account daily variation in the position of the rectum. It is important to accurately assess accumulated dose (DA) to the rectum in order to understand the relationship between dose and toxicity. The primary objective of this work was to quantify systematic (Σ) and random (σ) variation in the position of the rectum during a...
Background: In order to improve the evaluation of possible rectal toxicity based on the rectal normal tissue complication probability (NTCP), we consider the fractional dependence of the NTCP on the wall thickness (tW) and rectal displacement (RM). Materials and Methods: The two-dimensional NTCP model (NTCP2D) was developed using radiotherapy plans of ten randomly selected patients with prostat...
