Traditionally, dosimetry is performed on non-contrast CT scans to minimize dose calculation discrepancies. This study evaluates the dosimetric impact of planning directly on contrast-enhanced CT scans.</div></div><div><h3>Material and methods</h3><div>Twelve patients with head and neck cancers (oral cavity, oropharynx, pharyngolarynx, ethmoid, thyroid) treated using volumetric-modulated radiation technique were included. Target and organs at risk delineation and dose calculation were performed on contrast-enhanced CT scans and subsequently transferred to non-contrast CT scans without renormalization. Prescribed doses for high-risk planning target volume were 60 to 70<!--> <!-->Gy, for low-risk planning target volume 54<!--> <!-->Gy, in 30 to 33 fractions. Volumetric-modulated arc therapy planning was performed on Eclipse® (version 15.6), with simultaneous integrated boost, using the AAA dose calculation algorithm. Dosimetric variations in organs at risk and planning target volumes were assessed.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>Mean variations of mean dose for organs at risk mandible, larynx, parotid glands, and pharyngeal constrictor muscle ranged from 0.02<!--> <!-->Gy (0.10 %) to 0.16<!--> <!-->Gy (0.38 %). Mean D2 % variations for spinal canal, brainstem, brachial plexus, and carotid arteries ranged from 0.05<!--> <!-->Gy (0.17 %) to 0.16<!--> <!-->Gy (0.46 %). None of the variations for organs at risk were found to be statistically or clinically significant. For planning target volumes, variations in coverage by the 95 % isodose of the prescribed dose were always less than 1 %. The maximum variation of maximum dose was a decrease of 0.6<!--> <!-->Gy, representing 0.8 %.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>Performing volumetric-modulated arc therapy planning directly on contrast-enhanced CT scans leads to minimal dosimetric variations (less than 1 %) compared to non-contrast CT scans. This approach could streamline clinical workflows by eliminating the need for dual CT acquisitions and optimizing treatment preparation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9504,"journal":{"name":"Cancer Radiotherapie","volume":"29 3","pages":"Article 104623"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143887708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Advances in radiotherapy planning systems offer improved sparing of organs at risk while maintaining target coverage. This study compared the dosimetric performance of five planning techniques for hippocampal-sparing whole-brain radiotherapy: Radixact with 1<!--> <!-->cm and 2.5<!--> <!-->cm field widths, Ethos, HyperArc, and volumetric modulated arctherapy using advanced optimization algorithms.</div></div><div><h3>Materials and methods</h3><div>Eleven patients who underwent whole brain irradiation were included in this retrospective planning study. The prescribed dose was 30<!--> <!-->Gy in 12 fractions, with hippocampus dose constraints of D98 %<!--> <!-->≤<!--> <!-->9<!--> <!-->Gy and D2 %<!--> <!-->≤<!--> <!-->17<!--> <!-->Gy. Radixact plans were created using the VOLO™ Ultra optimizer with normal tissue objective parameters for dose fall-off control. Ethos plans were generated using an intelligent optimization engine with automated planning. HyperArc employed four non-coplanar arcs with SRS normal tissue objective optimization, while volumetric modulated arctherapy utilized six arcs. Dosimetric parameters, including planning target volume coverage, hippocampal doses, and organs at risk constraints, were analyzed using one-way ANOVA.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>Radixact with 1<!--> <!-->cm field width achieved the lowest hippocampal doses, whereas HyperArc and volumetric modulated arctherapy provided superior planning target volume coverage. Ethos resulted in the lowest doses to organs at risk, while HyperArc had the shortest treatment duration. Statistically significant differences (<em>P</em> <!-->&lt;<!--> <!-->0.05) were observed across techniques for hippocampal D98 %, D2 %, and sparing of organs at risk.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>Advanced planning techniques offer distinct dosimetric advantages for hippocampal-sparing whole-brain radiotherapy. Radixact with 1<!--> <!-->cm field width optimally spares the hippocampus, while HyperArc and volumetric modulated arctherapy balance sparing of organs at risk with shorter treatment times. Selection of an optimal planning approach should consider both dosimetric outcomes and clinical workflow efficiency.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9504,"journal":{"name":"Cancer Radiotherapie","volume":"29 3","pages":"Article 104643"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144089401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
