Abstract

A study was performed comparing dosimetric characteristics of volumetric modulated arc and intensity modulated radiatio therapy on patients with bilateral breast cancer. For 5 patients, 3 plans were made for each patient; IMRT beams 8 and 12 of the beam intensity modulated radiation therapy, volumetric modulated arc therapy plan. The average PTVs volumes and $D_{98}$ for 12-IMRT were $51.04{\pm}0.57$ Gy (right), $50.80{\pm}1.07$ Gy (left), $42.94{\pm}16.16$ Gy (right), $42.56{\pm}2.09$ Gy (left). HI ($D_5{\sim}D_{95}$) and $CI_{90,95}$, even 12-IMRT has shown excellent results. In OAR, 3 plans showed excellent results. But the lowest dose of 12-IMRT. 12-IMRT achieved similar PTV coverage and sparing of organs at risk than 8-IMRT and VMAT.

양측성 유방암 환자를 대상으로 부피적 조절회전방사선치료와 세기조절방사선치료의 선량학적 결과를 비교하여 효율적인 치료방법을 제시함을 목적으로 한다. 5명의 환자를 대상으로 8개 빔의 세기조절방사선치료와 12개 빔의 세기조절방사선치료, 1회전 부피적 조절회전방사선치료 계획을 수립하였다. 그 결과를 DVH 분석을 통해 선량학적으로 비교분석하였다. PTV의 평균선량과 $D_{98}$을 보면 12-IMRT가 $51.04{\pm}0.57$ Gy (오른쪽), $50.80{\pm}1.07$ Gy (왼쪽), $42.94{\pm}16.16$ Gy (오른쪽), $42.56{\pm}2.09$ Gy (왼쪽)로 우수한 경향을 보인다. HI와 $CI_{90,95}$에서도 12-IMRT가 우수한 결과를 보였다. 중요장기에서는 세치료계획 모두 우수한 결과를 보였지만 12-IMRT에서 가장 낮은 선량을 보였다. 12-IMRT가 PTV와 OAR의 선량학적측면에서 우수한 결과를 보여주었다.
