The treatment plans were compared with each other using dose-volume histograms Results The 3D conformal technique showed a good PTV coverage. if PTV was distant to organs at risk (OAR). If PTV was nearby OAR, the 3D technique revealed a poor PTV coverage in contrast to both intensity-modulated techniques The conventional IMRT technique showed a slightly better PTV coverage than RapidArc The advantages of RapidArc were a shorter treatment time, less monitor units and a small V(107%) Conclusions: If PTV is distant to OAR. the use of 3D conformal technique is sufficient. Otherwise an intensity-modulated technique should be used RapidArc was faster than conventional IMRT and should be preferred if PTV coverage is adequate (C) 2009 Elsevier Ireland Ltd All rights reserved Radiotherapy and Oncology 93 (2009) 593-596"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.radonc.2009.10.002"],["dc.identifier.isi","000272762900037"],["dc.identifier.pmid","19897266"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/6277"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/55855"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Elsevier Ireland Ltd"],["dc.relation.issn","0167-8140"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.title","Radiotherapy of malignant gliomas: Comparison of volumetric single arc technique (RapidArc), dynamic intensity-modulated technique and 3D conformal technique"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

The influence of different dose rates (DRs) and maximum leaf speeds (LS) on the calculated and measured dose and dose profiles were analyzed. Results: Good agreement between calculated and measured dose in the case of a field of intensity 1.0 was found. For the field with intensity 0.0, the measured dose was 20-60% tower than the dose calculated by the \"actual fluence\". The results were found dependent on the DR and LS. Conclusion: The overestimation in regions of optimal intensity 0.0 by the planning system cannot be resolved by the user. Taking the measured dose in the region of desired intensity 1.0 and other technical limitations (like beam hold interrupts or spikes in the cross and longitudinal profiles) into consideration, the application of an LS of 2.5 cm/s and a DR of 500 MU/min is recommended in order to minimize radiation dose applied to organs at risk, which are located in regions of low intensity, like, for example, the spinal cord."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s00066-009-2028-2"],["dc.identifier.isi","000272525100007"],["dc.identifier.pmid","20013092"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/55861"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Urban & Vogel"],["dc.relation.issn","0179-7158"],["dc.title","Overestimation of Low-Dose Radiation in Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy with Sliding-Window Technique"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

The focus of this work is on the analysis of observer-related reasons while controlling for other variables. Methods: In three consecutive patients, eighteen physicians from fourteen different departments delineated the GTV and M in CT-slices using a detailed instruction for target delineation. Differences in the volumes, the delineated anatomic lymph node compartments and differences in every delineated pixel of the contoured volumes in the CT-slices (pixel-by-pixel-analysis) were evaluated for different groups: ten radiation oncologists from ten departments (ROs), four haematologic oncologists and chest physicians from four departments (HOs) and five radiation oncologists from one department (RO1D). Results: Agreement (overlap >= 70% of the contoured pixels) for the GTV and PTV delineation was found in 16.3% and 23.7% (ROs), 30.4% and 38.6% (HOs) and 32.8% and 35.9% (RO1D), respectively. Conclusion: A large interobserver variability in the PTV and much more in the GTV delineation were observed in spite of a detailed instruction for delineation. The variability was smallest for group RO1D where due to repeated discussions and uniform teaching a better agreement was achieved. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

It is well known that whenever treatment is intensified, risk of therapy-related toxicity rises. An irradiation with protons could possibly present an approach to solve this dilemma by lowering the exposure to the organs-at-risk (OAR) without compromising tumor response. Material and methods: Twenty five consecutive patients were treated from 04/2009 to 5/2010. For all patients, four different treatment plans including protons, RapidArc, IMRT and 3D-conformal-technique were retrospectively calculated and analyzed according to dosimetric aspects. Results: Detailed DVH-analyses revealed that protons clearly reduced the dose to the OAR and entire normal tissue when compared to other techniques. Furthermore, the conformity index was significantly better and target volumes were covered consistent with the ICRU guidelines. Conclusions: Planning results suggest that treatment with protons can improve the therapeutic tolerance for the irradiation of rectal cancer, particularly for patients scheduled for an irradiation with an intensified chemotherapy regimen and identified to be at high risk for acute therapy-related toxicity. However, clinical experiences and long-term observation are needed to assess tumor response and related toxicity rates. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

It consists of a rectal balloon carrying eight alanine dosimeter probes and two metal markers to document the exact position of the balloon. We measured the effects of an air-filled rectal balloon on the dose at the rectal wall and compared these results with the applied dose distribution of the treatment planning system. Materials and methods: During 10 fractions with 2.0 Gy per fraction, the accumulated doses were measured in 3 patients. The results of the ESR measurements were compared to the applied doses. Results: It was possible to insert the device without clinical complications and without additional rectal discomfort for the patients. The measurements of the dose accumulated at the anterior and the posterior rectal wall agreed with the applied dose within a mean deviation of 1.5% (overestimation of the dose) and 3.5% (underestimation of the dose), respectively. However, clinically significant differences between applied and measured rectal doses were seen in a patient with a hip prosthesis. In this case, the dose at the anterior rectal wall was overestimated by the TPS by about 11% and the dose at the posterior rectal wall was underestimated by approximately 7%. Conclusion: The method presented in this study is useful for quality control of irradiations in vivo. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

Although small safety margins are required because of very high accuracy of patient positioning and exact online localisation, there are still disadvantages like long treatment time, high number of monitor units (MU) and covering of noncircular targets. This planning study analysed whether Rapid Arc (RA) with stereotactic localisation for single-fraction SRS can solve these problems. Methods: Ten consecutive patients were treated with Linac-based SRS. Eight patients had one or more brain metastases. The other patients presented a symptomatic vestibularis schwannoma and an atypic meningeoma. For all patients, two plans (CAT/RA) were calculated and analysed. Results: Conformity was higher for RA with additional larger low-dose areas. Furthermore, RA reduced the number of MU and the treatment time for all patients.
