中文摘要:
  目的: 比较基于两种类型多叶准直器(multileaf collimator, MLC)的胸膜间皮瘤容积旋转调强放疗(volumetric modulated arc therapy, VMAT)计划差异。材料与方法: 回顾性选取10 例因各种无法手术的胸膜间皮瘤患者CT图像,分别采用配置常规多叶准直器(standar MLC,sMLC)和微型多叶准直器(micro-MLC, mMLC)的医科达直线加速器进行容积旋转调强放疗的计划设计。比较两种计划在靶区(planning target volume, PTV)适形度(conformity index, CI)、均匀度(heterogeneity index, HI)以及危及器官 (organs at risk, OAR)剂量体积参数方面的异同。结果: 与基于sMLC的VMAT计划(sMLC-VMAT)相比,基于mMLC的VMAT计划(mMLC-VMAT)实施效率高(平均实施时间: 2.67min±1.49min vs 4.21±2.03) (p < 0.05). 此外,mMLC-VMAT计划靶区适形度和均匀度优于sMLC-VMAT (CI 0.75±0.08 vs 0.73±0.09/HI 1.09±0.02 vs 1.10±0.02) . 就OARs而言,除患侧肺的V20、V30 (p = 0.031, p =0.033)以外,其它各个OARs的剂量体积参数差异均无显著性意义(p >0.05)结论: 与sMLC-VMAT计划相比,mMLC-VMAT计划不仅缩短了治疗时间,提高靶区的覆盖度,而且显著降低了患侧肺的高剂量受照体积,有助于减小放射性肺损伤的发生风险。
英文摘要:
    Objective?The aiom of the study was to compare the impacts of two types of multileaf collimators (MLC) [standard MLC with a width of 10 mm (sMLC) and micro-MLC with a width of 5 mm (mMLC)] on volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) planning for malignant pleural mesothelioma. Methods?VMAT for ten patients with inoperable malignant pleural mesotheliomas was retrospectively planned with the sMLC and mMLC. Histogram-based dose-volume parameters of the planning target volume (PTV) [conformity index (CI) and homogeneous index (HI)] and organs-at-risk were compared for VMAT plans with sMLC (sMLC-VMAT) and mMLC (mMLC-VMAT). Results?The mMLC-VMAT plans were more efficient (average delivery time: 2.67±1.49 min) than the sMLC-VMAT plans (average delivery time: 4.21 ± 2.03 min; P < 0.05). Moreover, compared to the sMLC plans, the mMLC plans demonstrated advantages in the dose coverage of the PTV (CI 0.75 ± 0.08 vs 0.73 ± 0.09; HI 1.09 ± 0.02 vs 1.10 ± 0.02), although the difference was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). In addition, significant dose sparing in the fraction of the ipsilateral lung volume receiving > 20 Gy (V20; 54.72 ± 27.08 vs 58.52 ± 29.30) and > 30 Gy (V30; 42.74 ± 27.86 vs 46.86 ± 31.49) radiation, respectively, was observed for the mMLC plans (P < 0.05). Conclusion?Comparing sMLC-VMAT and mMLC-VMAT not only demonstrated the higher efficiency and better optimal target coverage of mMLC-VMAT, but also considerably improved the dose sparing of the ipsilateral lung in the VMAT plans for malignant pleural mesothelioma.
