Abstract

Total Skin Electron Therapy (TSET) has been a highly effective treatment for mycosis fungoides (MF). However, the standard TSET treatment requires the patient to stand upright in six different positions for an extended time period, which may not be possible for some patients. Herein, is reported a modified TSET is reported to accommodate a paraplegic patient. Two dual beams of 6 MeV, commissioned for the standard TSET, were used for treatment. The patient's treatment surface was maintained within 190–240 cm isocenter to surface distance (ISD) and 100 cm horizontally. In vivo measurement showed that a ± 30% dose uniformity was achieved at the patient's surface.

改良全皮肤电子治疗截瘫病人
全皮肤电子治疗(TSET)是一种非常有效的治疗真菌病(MF)的方法。然而,标准的TSET治疗要求患者在很长一段时间内以六种不同的姿势站立,这对一些患者来说可能是不可能的。本文报道了一种改良的TSET以适应一位截瘫患者。用于标准TSET的两束6 MeV双光束被用于治疗。患者的治疗面保持在190-240 cm等心面距(ISD)和100 cm水平。体内测量显示,在患者表面达到±30%的剂量均匀性。

期刊介绍: Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics is an international Open Access publication dedicated to clinical medical physics. JACMP welcomes original contributions dealing with all aspects of medical physics from scientists working in the clinical medical physics around the world. JACMP accepts only online submission. JACMP will publish: -Original Contributions: Peer-reviewed, investigations that represent new and significant contributions to the field. Recommended word count: up to 7500. -Review Articles: Reviews of major areas or sub-areas in the field of clinical medical physics. These articles may be of any length and are peer reviewed. -Technical Notes: These should be no longer than 3000 words, including key references. -Letters to the Editor: Comments on papers published in JACMP or on any other matters of interest to clinical medical physics. These should not be more than 1250 (including the literature) and their publication is only based on the decision of the editor, who occasionally asks experts on the merit of the contents. -Book Reviews: The editorial office solicits Book Reviews. -Announcements of Forthcoming Meetings: The Editor may provide notice of forthcoming meetings, course offerings, and other events relevant to clinical medical physics. -Parallel Opposed Editorial: We welcome topics relevant to clinical practice and medical physics profession. The contents can be controversial debate or opposed aspects of an issue. One author argues for the position and the other against. Each side of the debate contains an opening statement up to 800 words, followed by a rebuttal up to 500 words. Readers interested in participating in this series should contact the moderator with a proposed title and a short description of the topic
