The aim of this study was to assess whether positron emission tomograpgy/computed tomography (PET/CT) may be safely omitted in selected groups of patients. Materials and methods: This retrospective analysis included 37 esophageal cancer patients recruited to chemoradiation by the Multidisciplinary Tumor Board (MTB) at the Greater Poland Cancer Center in 2021. Prior to radiotherapy planning every patient was referred to PET/CT to have the extent of their disease assessed. Results: Among 37 patients PET/CT changed the staging status to metastatic (M1) in six cases (3 planoepithelial and 3 adenocarcinomas). In all those cases but one (1 patient with supraclavicular node metastasis finally received chemoradiation) confirmation of distant metastases excluded patients from radical treatment. Interestingly, in the PET/CT distant positive group 3 patients were initially staged as locally advanced (without nodal involvement). The other 3 were initially identified as at least N2 in tomography. Conclusion: Results of this report allowed the conclusion that PET/CT plays a key role in esophageal cancer patients considered for radical chemoradiation; therefore, it remains a necessary tool to exclude metastatic disease in both main pathology types. Since the delayed time for PET/CT scan in esophageal cancer patients planned to chemoradiation may negatively influence treatment results, the data should be alarming for national health provider.","PeriodicalId":47283,"journal":{"name":"Reports of Practical Oncology and Radiotherapy","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135598121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and methods: A prospective study was conducted on patients with left breast cancer with an indication of adjuvant radiotherapy for breast only. Treatment simulation consisted of four series of CTs: the first during FB and three in DIBH to assess the reproducibility and stability of apnea. Contouring was based on the RTOG atlas, and planning was done in both FB and DIBH. Dosimetric and geometric parameters were assessed and compared between FB and DIBH. Results: From June 2020 to December 2021, 30 patients with left breast cancer were recruited. Overall, the DIBH technique presented a mean dose reduction of 24% in the heart and 30% in the left anterior descendent coronary artery (LAD) (p < 0.05). The only geometric parameter correlated to a 30% dose reduction in the mean heart dose and LAD doses was the anterolateral distance from the heart to the chest wall of at least 1.5 cm measured on FB (p < 0.0001). Conclusion: The prototype enabled the use of the DIBH technique with dose reductions in the heart and LAD. The benefit of the DIBH technique can be predicted on FB CT by measuring the distance between the heart and chest wall at the treatment isocenter.","PeriodicalId":47283,"journal":{"name":"Reports of Practical Oncology and Radiotherapy","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135598120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and methods: For all energies, the Elekta Linac electron mode and 14 × 14 cm² applicator were chosen. To obtain percentage depth dose (PDD) curves, a homogeneous water phantom was voxelized in a 1 × 1 × 0.1 cm 3 grid along the central axis. At the reference depth, the dose profile was recorded in 0.1 × 1 × 1 cm 3 voxels. Iterative changes were made to the initial beams mean energy and full width at half maximum (FWHM) of energy in order to keep the conformity of the simulated and measured dose curves within. To confirm simulation results, the Gamma analysis was performed with acceptance criteria of 2 mm- 2%. From the validated calculation, the parameters of the PDD and profile curve (R100, R50, Rp, and field size) were collected.
