3d conformal radiation therapy vs imrt. 3d crt doesnt do as good a job as imrt in achieving uniformity and concentrating the radiation dose to the targeted volume. This includes orthovoltage radiation therapy conventional radiation therapy 3d conformal radiation therapy intensity modulated radiation therapy imrt brachytherapy volumetric modulated arc therapy also known as rapidarc and stereotactic radiation therapy also known as radiosurgery gammaknife cyberknife or sbrt. Dosimetric comparison and clinical implications leire arbea 1 luis isaac ramos 1.

Imrt imrt is an advanced form of 3d crt imrt refers to a radiation therapy technique in which nonuniform fluence is delivered to the patient from any given position of the treatment beam using computer aided optimization to attain certain specified dosimetric and clinical objectives. Dosimetric comparison and clinical implications. This is to have the virtual patient on the testament planning system tps.

History of conformal therapy 12. 3d conformal radiotherapy 3dcrt in locally advanced rectal cancer larc. Patient is immobilized as in future treatment and gets a ct scan.

3d crt uses beam modifying devices as wedge filters and compensators to produce a more uniform dose in 3 dimensions using 3d treatment planning software to assess the uniformity in 3 dimensions. 3d conformal radiotherapy 3dcrt in locally advanced rectal cancer larc. Intensity modulated radiation therapy imrt is an advanced technique of high precision radiotherapy that uses computer controlled linear accelerator to deliver precise radiation doses to a malignant tumor or specific areas within the tumor.

Mlcs are used in imrt. Intensity modulated radiation therapy imrt vs. 3d conformal doesnt do as good a job as imrt in achieving uniformity and concentrating the radiation dose to the targeted volume.

Even the all process of these two techniques is. Developing local regional recurrence among patients treated with 3d conformal radiation therapy crt arm 1 or intensity modulated radiation therapy imrt arm 2. 3d conformal is older technology.

Current technology is imrt and igrt image guided radiotherapy. Leire arbea 1 luis isaac ramos 1 rafael martinez monge 1 marta moreno 1 and javier aristu 1. To assess and compare the time to develop ctc 30 grade 3 radiation esophagitis in patients with non small cell lung cancer nsclc treated in arm 1 and arm 2.

Intensity modulated radiation therapy imrt vs. Physician draws volumes of interest.
