Abstract
Purpose : Evaluating absorbed dose related to 2D and 3D imaging confirmation devices Materials and Methods : According to the radiographic projection conditions, absorbed doses are measured that 3 glass dosimeters attached to the centers of 0', 90', 180' and 270' in the head, thorax and abdomen each with Rando phantom are used in field size $26.6{\times}20$, $15{\times}15$. In the same way, absorbed doses are measured for width 16cm and 10cm of CBCT each. OBI(version 1.5) system and calibrated glass dosimeters are used for the measurement. Results : AP projection for 2D imaging check, In $0^{\circ}$ degree absorbed doses measured in the head were $1.44{\pm}0.26mGy$ with the field size $26.6{\times}20$, $1.17{\pm}0.02mGy$ with the field size $15{\times}15$. With the same method, absorbed doses in the thorax were $3.08{\pm}0.86mGy$ to $0.57{\pm}0.02mGy$ by reducing field size. In the abdomen, absorbed dose were reduced $8.19{\pm}0.54mGy$ to $4.19{\pm}0.09mGy$. Finally according to the field size, absorbed doses has decreased by average 5~12%. With Lateral projection, absorbed doses showed average 5~8% decrease. CBCT for 3D imaging check, CBDI in the head were $4.39{\pm}0.11mGy$ to $3.99{\pm}0.13mGy$ by reducing the width 16cm to 10cm. In the same way in thorax the absorbed dose were reduced $34.88{\pm}0.93(10.48{\pm}0.09)mGy$ to $31.01{\pm}0.3(9.30{\pm}0.09)mGy$ and $35.99{\pm}1.86mGy$ to $32.27{\pm}1.35mGy$ in the abdomen. With variation of width 16cm and 10cm, they showed 8~11% decrease. Conclusion : By means of reducing 2D field size, absorbed dose were decreased average 5~12% in 3D width size 8~11%. So that it is necessary for radiation therapists to recognize systematical management for absorbed dose for Imaging confirmation. and also for frequent CBCT, it is considered whether or not prescribed dose for RT refer to imaging dose.
목 적 : 방사선 치료 전 종양의 정확한 위치확인을 위한 치료 전 확인영상인 2D(AP,LAT), 3D(CBCT)의 흡수선량을 평가해보았다. 대상 및 방법 : Varian 사에서 제작한 OBI(Version1.5) System, CTDI 측정 phantom및 이온chamber, 교정된 유리선량계(GD-352M)를 이용하여 두부, 흉부, 복부의 부위별 촬영조건에 따라 Rando phantom 에 $0^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$, $180^{\circ}$, $270^{\circ}$, 중심부에 각각 3개씩의 유리선량계를 부착하여 Field size $26.6{\times}20$, $15{\times}15$로 나누어 측정하였다. 또한 같은 방법으로 CBCT width를 16cm, 10cm로 나누어 동일하게 측정하였다. 결 과 : 2차원영상 AP 촬영은 입사방향인 $0^{\circ}$에서 가장 크게 측정되었으며 Field size 를 $26.6{\times}20$, $15{\times}15$로 변화 시켰을 때 흡수선량은 두부에서 각각 $1.44{\pm}0.26mGy$, $1.17{\pm}0.02mGy$, 흉부는 $3.08{\pm}0.86mGy$, $0.57{\pm}0.02mGy$, 복부는 $8.19{\pm}0.54mGy$ $4.19{\pm}0.08mGy$로 Field size 축소에 따라 평균 5~12%감소하였다. Lat 촬영 시에는 각각 5~8%감소하였다. 3차원영상 CBCT 에서는 width를 16 cm, 10 cm로 변화시킴에 따라 CBDI 측정값은 두부 $4.39{\pm}0.11mGy$, $3.99{\pm}0.13mGy$, 흉부(LDCT) $34.88{\pm}0.93(10.48{\pm}0.09)mGy$, $31.01{\pm}0.3(9.30{\pm}0.09)mGy$ 복부 $35.99{\pm}1.86mGy$, $32.27{\pm}1.35mGy$로 약 8~11%감소하였다. 결 론 : 2D는 조사면 크기를 줄여 5~12%, 3D는 width를 줄여줌으로써 8~11% 환자피폭선량을 감소시킬 수 있었다. 영상선량을 줄이기 위한 방사선사의 인식의 전환이 필요하고 다수의 CBCT 촬영시 치료처방선량에 영상선량의 포함여부도 고려되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.
