Abstract

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: Normal tissue absorbed dose in external beam RADIOTHERAPY is a serious problem. Accurate treatment planning may reduce the normal tissue and organ doses to their tolerance limits. The objective of the present study was to obtain the OVARIAN ABSORBED DOSEs in patients and also at different depths of a pelvis phantom through two parallel opposed radiation fields.METHODS: Thermoluminescent dosimeter chips (TLD-100) were used to measure ovarian depth dose in anthropomorphic phantom as well as in 60 patient cases.FINDINGS: Findings showed that the ovarian dose per fraction was 16.8±3.8 mSv for mediastinal fields and 30±7.6 mSv for abdominal fields (p<0.05).CONCLUSION: Phantom dosimetry showed that the doses delivered to the ovary region in different depths were similar and approximately independent of depth. Ovarian dose from both mediastinal and abdominal fields are lesser than ovarian tolerance dose (TD5/5=2Gy) but still over than fetus dose limit (5 mSv). It is suggested that RADIOTHERAPY of fertile women needs special considerations.
