The calculation and comparison of integral dose for the rectum, bladder, right and left femur heads in two methods of prostate cancer radiotherapy: S.A.S IMRT vs. 3D CRT

Basic & Clinical Cancer Research, 2014
The aim of radiation therapy treatment planning is to achieve an optimal balance between delivering a high dose to target volume and a low dose to healthy tissues.

Does gap-free intensity modulated chemoradiation therapy provide a greater clinical benefit than 3D conformal chemoradiation in patients with anal cancer?

Radiation Oncology, 2012
Background Chemoradiation is the standard treatment for anal cancer. 3D conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) is usually split in 2 sequences with a therapeutic break (gap) in between.

Evaluation of 3D-CRT Treatment Planning Techniques for Breast Cancer

ARO-THE SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL OF KOYA UNIVERSITY
This study compares the collapsed cone (CC) and Monte Carlo (MC) algorithms for radiation treatment planning for lumpectomy of the chest wall. The aim is to evaluate how these algorithms affect dose distribution and plan quality improve treatment outcomes.

Parotid gland as an organ at risk in whole-brain radiation therapy: A retrospective comparison of 3D-CRT and IMRT techniques from a tertiary cancer center

Cancer Research, Statistics, and Treatment
Background: Regardless of primary malignancy, whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) is the preferred treatment for brain metastases. However, WBRT exposes the parotid glands to significant radiation.

Comparison between 3D-CRT and modulated techniques for head-and-neck and breast [PDF]

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2018
Objective: Knowing that the most important steps related to planning systems and the success of IMRT is the optimization process, the objective of this work was to reach an optimal intensity pattern through cost functions by comparing the 3D-CRT technique and the IMRT technique for carcinomas of the head and neck and breast. The results obtained in the

The feasibility of a heart block with an electron compensation as an alternative whole breast radiotherapy technique in patients with underlying cardiac or pulmonary disease.

PLoS ONE, 2017
PurposeWe aimed to evaluate the feasibility of the heart block with electron compensation (HBE) technique, based on three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) in left-sided breast cancer patients with underlying cardiac or pulmonary disease ...

Three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy versus intensity-modulated radiotherapy in carcinoma cervix

Journal of Clinical and Scientific Research, 2018
Background: Cervical cancer is the most common gynecological cancer among Indian women. 3D-CRT treatment is associated with more acute and late toxicities, because of close proximity of bladder and rectum to the cervix.

Three Dimensional Conformal Radiotherapy Combined with Concurrent Chemotherapy for Stage Ⅲ Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Chinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2009
Background and objective The outcome of treatment for stage Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) by radiotherapy plus concurrent chemotherapy is poor. This study was aimed to investigate the feasibility of three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT)
