  • 목 적 : MRI를 기반으로 한 CT fusion plan과 MRI only based plan을 비교함으로써 MRI only plan의 유용성을 평가하고, 나아가 Simulation과 치료계획을 포함한 방사선치료의 전 과정을 CT 촬영 없이 MRI 영상으로 구성하여 실시간 MR-IGRT를 구현하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법 : 본원에서 사용중인 BBB CT (Brilliance Big Bore CT, 16slice, Philips)와 Viewray MRIdian System (Viewray, USA)으로 환자 11명(Head and Neck 1명, Breast 5명, Lung 1명, Liver 3명, Prostate 1명)을 대상으로 CT & MR simulation 및 치료계획을 세웠다. Head and Neck, Breast, Prostate환자는 자유호흡(Free Breathing) 상태로, Lung과 Liver 환자는 흡기 호흡중지(Inhalation Breathing Holdng)상태로 Simulation을 진행하였다. Viewray의 Bore 크기 및 Coil 위치를 고려하여 환자 자세 및 고정기구를 동일한 조건을 유지하여 CT simulation을 시행하였다. Viewray MRIdian 시스템을 이용하여 MR 영상을 기반으로 한 CT fusion plan과 CT fusion 없이 [ICRU 46]에서 권고하는 폐, 공기, 뼈의 전자밀도를 입력한 동일한 조건의 MR only plan을 세웠다. Head and Neck, Breast, Prostate는 IMRT, Lung과 Liver 는 Gating치료계획을 세웠고, 치료계획의 평가는 PTV의 균질성 지표 (Homogeneity Index, HI)와 일치성 지표 (Conformity Index, CI), 그리고 각 PTV와 OAR의 DVH와 선량차이를 각각 비교하였다. 결 과 : 두 치료계획간 치료부위별 PTV에 대한 HI 값의 차이는 Head and Neck, Breast, Lung, Liver, Prostate 부위별로 각각 0.089, 0.26, 0.67, 0.2, 0.4%로 나타났으며, CI 값의 차이는 부위별로 각각 0.043, 0.84, 0.68, 0.46, 0.3%로 두가지 평가 값 모두 Head and Neck 부위가 가장 작은 차이를 나타냈다. PTV에 대한 평균선량 차이는 치료부위별로 각각 0.07, 0.29, 0.18, 0.3, 0.18 Gy로 나타났다. 이를 백분율로 나타냈을 때 0.06, 0.7, 0.29, 0.69, 0.44%으로 모두 1% 이하의 차이를 보였다. 두경부암의 각 OAR은 전체적으로 0.01~0.12 Gy의 평균선량 차이를 보였으며, 유방암은 0.04~0.06 Gy, 폐암에서는 0.01~0.21 Gy, 간암은 0.06~0.27 Gy, 전립선암은 0.02~0.23 Gy의 평균선량 차이를 나타냈다. 결 론 : MR 영상을 이용한 치료계획은 연부조직에서 탁월한 대조도를 나타낼 뿐만 아니라 CT fusion한 MR 치료계획과 비교했을 때 PTV의 HI, CI, 선량차이 모두 1%미만의 차이를 보였으며, OAR의 경우 비균질한 조직이 많은 부위일수록 최대 0.89 Gy 선량차이를 보였다. 이결과를 토대로 두경부암, 부분적 유방암이나 전립선암등 비균질도 차이가 적은 부위에는 CT촬영 없이 MR 영상만을 이용한 방사선치료의 가능성을 확인 할 수 있었다.

  • Background: Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) plans in prostate cancer are compared and analyzed to investigate the low magnetic effect (0.35 T) on the dose distribution, with various dosimetric parameters according to low magnetic field. Materials and Methods: Twenty patients who received a 36.25 Gy in five fractions using the MR-IGRT system (ViewRay) were studied. For planning target volume (PTV), the point mean dose ($D_{mean}$), maximum dose ($D_{max}$), minimum dose ($D_{min}$) and volumes receiving 100% ($V_{100%}$), 95% ($V_{95%}$), and 90% ($V_{90%}$) of the total dose. For organs-at-risk (OARs), the differences compared using $D_{max}$, $V_{50%}$, $V_{80%}$, $V_{90%}$, and $V_{100%}$ of the rectum; $D_{max}$, $V_{50%}$, $V_{30Gy}$, $V_{100%}$ of the bladder; and $V_{30Gy}$ of both left and right femoral heads. For both the outer and inner shells near the skin, $D_{mean}$, $D_{min}$, and $D_{max}$ were compared. Results and Discussion: In PTV analysis, the maximum difference in volumes ($V_{100%}$, $V_{95%}$, and $V_{90%}$) according to low magnetic field was $0.54{\pm}0.63%$ in $V_{100%}$. For OAR, there was no significant difference of dose distribution on account of the low magnetic field. In results of the shells, although there were no noticeable differences in dose distribution, the average difference of dose distribution for the outer shell was $1.28{\pm}1.08Gy$ for $D_{max}$. Conclusion: In the PTV and OARs for prostate cancer, there are no statistically-significant differences between the plan calculated with and without a magnetic field. However, we confirm that the dose distribution significantly increases near the body shell when a magnetic field is applied.

  • To investigate the effect of low magnetic field on dose distribution in SABR plans for liver cancer, we calculated and evaluated the dose distribution to each organ with and without magnetic fields. Ten patients received a 50 Gy dose in five fractions using the $ViewRay^{(R)}$ treatment planning system. For planning target volume (PTV), the results were analyzed in the point minimum ($D_{min}$), maximum ($D_{max}$), mean dose ($D_{mean}$) and volume receiving at least 90% ($V_{90%}$), 95% ($V_{95%}$), and 100% ($V_{100%}$) of the prescription dose, respectively. For organs at risk (OARs), the duodenum and stomach were analyzed with $D_{0.5cc}$ and $D_{2cc}$, and the remained liver except for PTV was analyzed with $D_{mean}$, $D_{max}$, and $D_{min}$. Both inner and outer shells were analyzed with the point $D_{min}$, $D_{max}$, and $D_{mean}$, respectively. For PTV, the maximum change in volume due to the presence or absence of the low magnetic field showed a percentage difference of up to $0.67{\pm}0.60%$. In OAR analysis, there is no significant difference for the magnetic field. In both shell structure analyses, although there are no major changes in dose distribution, the largest value of deviation for $D_{max}$ in the outer shell is $2.12{\pm}2.67Gy$. The effect of low magnetic field on dose distribution by a Co-60 beam was not significantly observed within the body, but the dose deposition was only appreciable outside the body.
