|
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 D98 for 12-IMRT were 51.04¡¾0.57 Gy (right), 50.80¡¾1.07 Gy (left), 42.94¡¾16.16 Gy (right), 42.56¡¾2.09 Gy (left). HI (D5¡D95) and CI90,95, 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.
