Abstract

Comparison of the dose aspect that radiation therapy treatments using IMRT, tomotherapy, mArc (modulated arc therapy). The experimental subject is non-small cell lung cancer patient. The prescription dose is 58.0 Gy to the volume of PTV(planning target volume). and spinal cord, esophagus, and liver organ is the normal organ(OAR, organ at risk). Average PTV value is 57.60 Gy in mArc and 61.04 Gy in tomotherapy and 58.95 Gy in IMRT. The average dose of the Esophagus is 2.84 Gy in m-Arc, 5.14 Gy in tomotherapy, 1.84 Gy in IMRT. The average dose of the Liver is 19.44 Gy in m-Arc, 12.22 Gy in tomotherapy, 21.97 Gy in IMRT. The average dose of the Spinal cord is 5.72 Gy in m-Arc, 7.08 Gy in tomotherapy, 6.15 Gy in IMRT. Results of this study is no significant difference between mArc and tomotherapy and Linac based IMRT in dose study and also, mArc's dose coverage and dose volume histogram is better than IMRT and tomotherapy. but, This study is limited to a disease of cancer. in addition, fewer number of groups. The wide range the more research can be developed patient-specific treatment techniques and be applied to the patients

방사선 치료시 최근 많이 쓰이고 있는 IMRT, Tomotherapy, mArc(modulation arc therapy)의 치료법을 선량적인 측면에서 상호 비교하고자 한다. 비소세포성 폐암의 환자를 대상으로 하여 치료계획용적에 58.0 Gy를 처방선량을 기준으로 설정하였으며 주변 정상장기는 척수, 식도, 간을 설정 하였다. PTVmean는 mArc의 경우 57.60 Gy, Tomotherapy가 61.04 Gy, IMRT는 58.95 Gy이었다. 식도(Esophagus)의 평균선량은 mArc가 2.84 Gy였고, Tomotherapy가 5.14 Gy, IMRT가 1.84 Gy로 나타났다. 간(Liver)은 mArc는 19.44 Gy, Tomotherpy가 12.22 Gy, IMRT는 21.97 Gy이었고 척수(Spinal Cord)은 mArc 5.72 Gy, Tomotherapy가 7.08 Gy, IMRT는 6.15 Gy로 측정되었다. 또한, 선량포함도와 선량체적곡선 등의 자료를 관찰해 본 결과 mArc와 Tomotherapy 그리고 IMRT의 결과와 현저한 차이를 보이지는 않았다. 하지만, 본 연구는 폐암이라는 질환으로 한정하였었고 실험군의 수가 적은 단점을 가지고 있으므로 좀 더 많은 질환과 환자를 대상으로 연구를 폭넓게 진행 한다면 환자 맞춤형 치료기법을 개발하여 적용될 것으로 사료된다.
