BACKGROUND/AIM: The purpose of the present study was to compare intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) plan with (Bone Marrow Sparing (BMS) - IMRT) or without (normal-IMRT) an intention of avoiding bone marrow in order to minimize treatment-related toxicity.
Computed tomography (CT) images of 10 consecutive postoperative cervical cancer patients were used. All patients were already treated by normal-IMRT. BMS-IMRTs were created for this study and dose-volume histogram parameters were compared.
Both planning target volume (PTV) D95% and D97% were statistically lower in BMS-IMRT than normal-IMRT, however, the difference was lower than 3%. There were no statistical differences between BMS-IMRT and normal-IMRT in the mean value of rectum V30Gy, V50Gy; bladder V45Gy, V50Gy; Bowel V35Gy, and V50Gy. Both in whole pelvic bone (WPB) and inner cavity of pelvic bone (ICPB), the mean value of V10Gy, V30Gy, and V40Gy of BMS-IMRT were statistically lower than that of normal-IMRT.
Both lower and higher dose for WPB as well as ICPB were effectively lowered by BMS-IMRT.
背景/目的:本研究旨在比较调强放疗(IMRT)计划,包括(骨髓保护(BMS)-IMRT)或不(常规-IMRT)旨在避免骨髓,以最大程度地减少治疗相关毒性。
使用 10 例连续的术后宫颈癌患者的计算机断层扫描(CT)图像。所有患者均已接受常规-IMRT 治疗。为这项研究创建了 BMS-IMRT,并比较了剂量-体积直方图参数。
BMS-IMRT 的计划靶区(PTV)D95%和 D97%均明显低于常规-IMRT,但差异低于 3%。BMS-IMRT 与常规-IMRT 之间直肠 V30Gy、V50Gy 的平均值、膀胱 V45Gy、V50Gy 无统计学差异;Bowel V35Gy 和 V50Gy。在全骨盆骨(WPB)和骨盆骨内腔(ICPB)中,BMS-IMRT 的 V10Gy、V30Gy 和 V40Gy 的平均值均明显低于常规-IMRT。
BMS-IMRT 可有效降低 WPB 和 ICPB 的低剂量和高剂量。
