PURPOSE
Establish the impact of iso-centre sequencing and unscheduled gaps in Gamma Knife® (GK) radiosurgery on the biologically effective dose (BED).
METHODS
A BED model was used to study BED values on the prescription iso-surface of patients treated with GK Perfexion™ (Vestibular Schwannoma). The effect of a 15 min gap, simulated at varying points in the treatment delivery, and adjustments to the sequencing of iso-centre delivery, based on average dose-rate, was quantified in terms of the impact on BED.
RESULTS
Depending on the position of the gap and the average dose-rate profiles, the mean BED values were decreased by 0.1% to 9.9% of the value in the original plan. A heuristic approach to iso-centre sequencing showed variations in BED of up to 14.2%, relative to the mean BED of the original sequence.
CONCLUSION
The treatment variables, like the iso-centre sequence and unscheduled gaps, should be considered during GK radiosurgery treatments.
目的
确定伽玛刀（GK）放射外科治疗中，等中心序列和非计划间隙对生物等效剂量（BED）的影响。
方法
使用BED模型研究接受GK Perfexion™（前庭神经鞘瘤）治疗的患者处方等剂量面上的BED值。在治疗过程中的不同时间点模拟15分钟的间隙，并根据平均剂量率对等中心照射序列进行调整，通过对BED的影响进行量化。
结果
根据间隙位置和平均剂量率分布，平均BED值比原计划降低了0.1%至9.9%。一种启发式的等中心序列方法显示，相对于原序列的平均BED，BED变化高达14.2%。
结论
在GK放射外科治疗过程中，应考虑等中心序列和非计划间隙等治疗变量。
