Effect on Heart and Lung Doses Reduction of Abdominal and Thoracic Deep Inspiratory Breath-hold Assuming Involved-field Radiation Therapy in Patients with Simulated Esophageal Cancer.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the lung and heart doses in volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) using involved-field irradiation in patients with middle-to-lower thoracic esophageal cancer during free breathing (FB), abdominal deep inspiratory breath-hold (A-DIBH), and thoracic DIBH (T-DIBH) images.
Methods: Computed tomography images of A-DIBH, T-DIBH, and FB from 25 patients with breast cancer were used to simulate patients with esophageal cancer. The irradiation field was set at an involved-field, and target and risk organs were outlined according to uniform criteria. VMAT optimization was performed, and lung and heart doses were evaluated.
Results: A-DIBH had a lower lung V20 Gy than FB and a lower lung V40 Gy, V30 Gy, V20 Gy than T-DIBH. The heart all dose indices were lower in T-DIBH than FB, and the heart V10 Gy was lower in A-DIBH than FB. However, the heart Dmean was comparable with A-DIBH and T-DIBH.
Conclusions: A-DIBH had significant dose advantages for lungs compared to FB and T-DIBH, and the heart Dmean was comparable to T-DIBH. Therefore, when performing DIBH, A-DIBH is suggested for radiotherapy in patients with middle-to-lower thoracic esophageal cancer, excluding irradiation of the prophylactic area.
