Conformal radiotherapy, intensity-modulated radiotherapy and image-guided radiotherapy

2008
The aim of radiotherapy is to deliver the desired tumoricidal dose to the intended target as accurately and reliably as possible and avoid unnecessary dose to surrounding normal tissues. This principle was recognized when irradiation was utilized therapeutically over 100 years ago and has been the guiding force for development and refinement of modern ...

Advances in Treatment with Intensity-Modulated Conformal Radiotherapy

Tumori Journal, 1998
The modern practice of radiotherapy centres on the development of conformai radiotherapy, techniques to ensure the high-dose volume is tightly wrapped around the diseased tissue and excluded as far as possible from adjacent normal structures. The development of conformai radiotherapy is a chain of processes involving treatment planning, development of

A Review of the Clinical Evidence for Intensity-modulated Radiotherapy

Clinical Oncology, 2010
Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is a development of three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy that offers improvements in dosimetry in many clinical scenarios. Here we review the clinical evidence for IMRT and present ongoing or unpublished randomised controlled trials (RCTs).We identified randomised and non-randomised comparative studies of ...
