Title

EVALUATION OF TREATMENT PLANNING SYSTEM MONITOR UNIT CALCULATIONS FOR THREE INTENSITY MODULATED RADIOTHERAPY DELIVERY TECHNIQUES

Pages

  145-150

Abstract

 Background: We have validated the monitor unit calculations from a commercially available treatment planning system (TPS) for three intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) planning techniques for tangential breast irradiation by using ionization chamber measurements. Materials and Methods: Treatment plans were generated for forty-two breast patients by a forward planned field in field technique, electronic tissue compensation (ETC), and an inverse planned sliding window technique. We also performed a REPRODUCIBILITY of delivery and DOSE LINEARITY analysis for each technique. The treatments were delivered to a phantom using a Varian CL21EX linear accelerator. A 2571 0.6 cm3 Farmer type ionization chamber and Farmer 2570/1 electrometer from NE Technology was used to measure output of the linear accelerator and the dose at predefined point in the verification plan.Results: The agreement between the measured and calculated dose was -0.87%±0.54% for field in field technique, -0.74%±0.23% for ELECTRONIC TISSUE COMPENSATORS, and -1.26%±0.48% for the inverse planning technique and. In terms of REPRODUCIBILITY the mean deviation was -1.10%±0.44% for the field in field technique, -0.38%±0.42% for ELECTRONIC TISSUE COMPENSATORS, -1.04%±0.42% for inverse planning technique. DOSE LINEARITY experiments showed no significant variations for clinical situations but a breakdown was observed in relative dose for very low monitor units.Conclusion: We have found that the monitor unit calculations for all three planning techniques are correct to the order of 1%, and that the plans can be delivered in a reproducible and accurate manner.
