摘要

目的:对于立体定向机器,建议需要严格的定位和精确的交付,这反映在等中心验证中。确定和分析所有临床组合的放射等中心对放射治疗的质量至关重要。虽然存在几种辐射等中心验证装置,但没有一种时间效率高的系统可用于验证组合辐射等中心。本文提出了一种新的专利方法,用于龙门、准直器和沙发辐射等心的联合精度验证。方法:采用新型的组合辐射等中心验证工具,在不同角度组合的龙门、准直器和沙发上曝光剂量片上的星形测试图案。使用Radiochromic.com的标准第三方胶片分析软件对暴露的剂量测定胶片进行评估。结果:1号机组联合辐射等中心直径为0.74 mm(半径0.37 mm), 2号机组联合辐射等中心直径为0.62 mm(半径0.31 mm)。这些结果与三维适形放射治疗、调强放射治疗、体积调制电弧治疗、立体定向放射外科和立体定向全身放射治疗技术的要求是一致的。结论:该联合放射等心验证工具有助于综合评价利用放射摄影胶片对龙门、躺椅和准直器等心的评价。与现有技术相比,它更容易实施,分析速度更快,使用基于pc的程序,最大限度地减少人为错误并提高测量精度。这种新方法可用于日常质量保证检查。

Investigation of Radiation Isocenter Accuracy of Linear Accelerator - New Approach of Comprehensive Evaluation of Gantry, Couch, and Collimator Isocenters.

Objective: For stereotactic machines, recommendations demand stringent localization and precise delivery, as reflected by isocenter verification. Determining and analyzing the radiation isocenter for all clinical combinations of gantry, collimator, and couch are crucial for the quality of radiation therapy delivered. Although several radiation isocenter verification devices exist, there is no time-efficient system available for verifying the combined radiation isocenter. This paper presents a newly patented approach for the combined accuracy verification of the gantry, collimator, and couch radiation isocenter.

Methods: The novel combined radiation isocenter verification tool is used to expose a star test pattern on the dosimetric film at various angular combinations of the gantry, collimator, and couch. The exposed dosimetric film was evaluated using Radiochromic.com's standard third-party film analysis software.

Results: According to the results, the combined radiation isocenter for unit 1 is 0.74 mm dia (0.37 mm radius), and for unit 2, it is 0.62 mm dia (0.31 mm radius). These results are in good agreement with the requirements for three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy, intensity-modulated radiation therapy, volumetric-modulated arc therapy, stereotactic radiosurgery, and stereotactic body radiotherapy techniques.

Conclusion: This combined radiation isocenter verification tool aids in comprehensive evaluation of gantry, couch and collimator isocenters using radiographic film. It is easier to implement and faster to analyse compared to existing techniques, using a PC-based program that minimizes human error and increases measurement accuracy. This new approach can be used for routine quality assurance checks.

期刊介绍: JOURNAL OF MEDICAL PHYSICS is the official journal of Association of Medical Physicists of India (AMPI). The association has been bringing out a quarterly publication since 1976. Till the end of 1993, it was known as Medical Physics Bulletin, which then became Journal of Medical Physics. The main objective of the Journal is to serve as a vehicle of communication to highlight all aspects of the practice of medical radiation physics. The areas covered include all aspects of the application of radiation physics to biological sciences, radiotherapy, radiodiagnosis, nuclear medicine, dosimetry and radiation protection. Papers / manuscripts dealing with the aspects of physics related to cancer therapy / radiobiology also fall within the scope of the journal.
