Influence of Normal Tissue Objective Tools on Treatment Planning System in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC): A 3D Printed Anthropomorphic Phantom Study [PDF]
Introduction: The normal tissue objective (NTO), one of the new aspects in the radiation treatment planning system (TPS), aims to lower the absorbed dose received by organs at risk (OARs) close to the target volume or Planning Target Volume (PTV).

The choice of multi-beam IMRT for whole breast radiotherapy in early-stage right breast cancer
The aim of this study was to identify a rational strategy for the selection of multi-beam IMRT in patients with right breast cancer through the comparison of dosimetric parameters of the planning target volume (PTV) and organs at risk (OARs) using five ...

Algorithm and performance of a clinical IMRT beam-angle optimization system
This paper describes the algorithm and examines the performance of an IMRT beam-angle optimization (BAO) system. In this algorithm successive sets of beam angles are selected from a set of predefined directions using a fast simulated annealing (FSA ...

ABSTRACT Background Patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) often experience deteriorated health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) and loss of body weight and muscle mass. The primary aim was to determine if a home‐based exercise program, aiming to increase physical activity (PA), could reduce muscle mass loss and fatigue.

A fluence map optimization in IMRT for head and neck cancer based on trapezoidal fuzzy numbers* [PDF]
The study of clinical observations in the family planning of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), indicates that the target dose prescribed within the framework of trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, more closely matches the oncologist's goals.

IMRT delivers lower radiation doses to dental structures than 3DRT in head and neck cancer patients
BackgroundRadiotherapy (RT) is frequently used in the treatment of head and neck cancer, but different side-effects are frequently reported, including a higher frequency of radiation-related caries, what may be consequence of direct radiation to dental ...
