Dosimetric comparison of hippocampal avoidance wholebrain radiotherapy with flattening filter and flattening filter-free modes
【摘要】 目的 探讨采用有均整器(FF)和无均整器(FFF)模式下容积旋转调强在海马保护性全脑放疗中的剂量学差异。方法 选取15例海马保护全脑放疗患者,对每例患者设计FF-VAMT和FFF-VMAT 2种放疗计划,达到临床剂量要求前提下,进行剂量学、机器总跳数、出束总时间比较。结果 2种计划相比,在靶区覆盖率、适形度和剂量梯度上的差异无统计学意义(P> 0.05)。在海马体组织Dmax、D100%、Dmean 3项剂量参数上,FFF-VAMT计划可分别控制在(15.13±0.38) Gy、(7.12±0.34) Gy和(9.76±0.43) Gy,明显小于FF-VAMT计划的(16.46±0.56) Gy、(7.72±0.28) Gy、(10.54±0.48) Gy,差异均有统计学意义(P <0.05);左右晶体的Dmax与眼球Dmean分别为(7.26±0.43) Gy、(6.29±1.13) Gy、(11.01±0.94) Gy、(9.78±1.13) Gy明显小于FF-VAMT计划(8.09±0.66) Gy、(7.80±0.74) Gy、(11.38±1.09) Gy、(11.05±0.90) Gy(P <0.05)。其它危及器官如视神经视交叉等剂量均控制在临床安全剂量范围内,且两计划之间差异无统计学意义(P> 0.05);FFF-VAMT计划MU值大于FF-VMAT计划,出束时间小于FF-VMAT计划,差异有统计学意义(P <0.05)。结论 FF-VAMT和FFF-VAMT 2种放疗方式均能满足临床需求,FFF-VAMT放疗方式对海马体和晶体的保护上更具优势,且FFF模式出束时间短,治疗效率高。
【Abstract】 Objective To compare the dosimetric differences of volumetric modulated arc therapy(VMAT) with flattening filter(FF) and flattening filter-free(FFF) modes in hippocampal avoidance whole brain radiotherapy. Methods We included 15 patients with hippocampal-sparing whole brain radiotherapy, and designed two radiotherapy plans of FF-VMAT and FFF-VMAT for each patient. On the premise of meeting clinical dose requirements, the two plans’ dosimetry, total number of monitor units, and beam-on time were compared. Results There were no significant differences in the target coverage, conformity index, and dose gradient of the FF-VMAT and FFF-VMAT plans(P > 0.05). The Dmax, D100%, and Dmean to the hippocampal tissue were significantly lower with FFF-VMAT [(15.13 ± 0.38) Gy,(7.12 ± 0.34) Gy, and(9.76 ±0.43) Gy, respectively)] than with FF-VMAT(16.46 ± 0.56) Gy,(7.72 ± 0.28) Gy, and(10.54 ± 0.48) Gy, respectively)](P < 0.05). The Dmax to the left and right lenses and the Dmean to the left and right eyeballs with FFF-VMAT were(7.26 ±0.43) Gy,(6.29 ± 1.13) Gy,(11.01 ± 0.94) Gy, and(9.78 ± 1.13) Gy, respectively, which were significantly lower than FFVMAT’s corresponding doses of(8.09 ± 0.66) Gy,(7.80 ± 0.74) Gy,(11.38 ± 1.09) Gy, and(11.05 ± 0.90) Gy, respectively(P < 0.05). The doses to other organs at risk including the optic nerve and optic chiasm were all controlled within the safe dosage ranges, with no significant differences between the two plans(P > 0.05). The FFF-VMAT plan had a significantly greater number of monitor units and a significantly shorter beam-on time than the FF-VMAT plan(P < 0.05).Conclusion Both FF-VMAT and FFF-VMAT can meet the clinical requirements, with FFF-VMAT having better hippocampus and lens protection, shorter beam-on time, and higher treatment efficiency.
