摘要
目的 对比分析食管癌调强放疗(IMRT)计划的三种剂量验证方法.方法 使用Pinnacle 8.0 h计划系统完成7例食管癌IMRT计划,选用二、三维剂量验证设备MATRIXX和Delta4完成测量验证.IMRT原计划和Delta4移植计划使用蒙特卡罗方法重新计算.评价MATRIXX和Delta4测量的gamma通过率;Pinnacle计算,Delta4测量与蒙特卡罗模拟结果分别比较gamma图,中心层面剂量分布,剂量曲线和剂量体积直方图.结果 gamma误差设定为3%/3 mm,MATRIXX测量通过率>98%,Delta4测量通过率为94.4%,其中有4个射野<90%.Delta4测量和蒙特卡罗模拟比较,误差限定为2 mm/2%和3 mm/3%时,gamma通过率分别为97.6%和99.8%.Pinnacle计划系统计算的中心层面剂量分布、剂量曲线与蒙特卡罗模拟计算结果、Delta4测量结果比较一致.Delta4测量与蒙特卡罗模拟计算的剂量体积直方图一致性很好,均与Pinnacle计划系统计算略有差异.结论 3种方法均能完成食管癌IMRT计划的验证,蒙特卡罗和Delta4方法在验证过程中无数据丢失.Delta4实现了三维的剂量验证,蒙特卡罗能够在每个患者的实际CT图像上进行模拟计算.
Objective To compare the results of three dose verification solutions of esophageal carcinoma IMRT plans. Methods Seven esophageal carcinoma cases were planned with Pinnacle 8.0 h.The MATRIXX and Delta4 were chosen as the two-dimensional dosimetry and three-dimensional dosimetry.IMRT plans and Delta4 phantom plans were also recalculated by Monte Carlo. Gamma values were evaluated for MATRIXX and Delta4 with 3 mm/3% gamma criteria. For the comparison of Pinnacle, Delta4 and Monte gamma maps, the dose distribution in central plane, dose profiles and dose-volume histograms were used to evaluate the agreement. Results The gamma maps comparison show that with 3 mm/3% gamma criteria an over 98% pass ratio was obtained by MATRIXX measurement. A 94. 4% gamma pass ratio whicl.contains 4 fields gamma pass ratio lower than 90%, was obtained by Delta4 measurement. A 97.6% and 99. 8% gamma pass ratio was obtained between the Delta4 measurement and Monte Carlo simulation with 2 mm/2% and 3 mm/3% gamma criteria. The dose distribution in central plane and dose profiles from Pinnacle calculation were almost in agreement with both the Monte Carlo simulation and Delta4 measurement. The DVH plot have slightly differences between Pinnacle and Delta4 measurement as well as Pinnacle and Monte Carlo simulation, but have excellent agreement between Delta4 measurement and Monte Carlo simulation. Conclusions It was shown that all the three methods can be used very efficiently to verify esophageal carcinoma IMRT delivery, Delta4 and Monte Carlo simulation no data missed. The primary advantage of Delta4 is the fact it can measure true 3D dosimetry while Monte Carlo can simulate in patients CT images but not in phantom.
