초록
Leaf width가 다른 다엽 콜리메터 (MLCs)를 이용한 강도변조 방사선 치료 (IMRT)계획을 비교하였다. micro-MLCs를 사용하여 이미 시행된 12 case를 Varian사의 120 MLC와 80 MLC를 사용하여 다시 치료계획 하였다. 이들 콜리메터는 중심에서의 leaf width가 각각 3 mm, 5 mm, 10 mm이다. 이 치료계획들을 uniformity index, conformity Index, 정상조직 내선량으로 서로 비교하였다. PTV의 uniformity Index경우, mMLCs와 120 MLCs가 통계적으로 차이가 없었다 (p = 0.06). 그러나 mMLCs와80 MLCs는 통계적으로 약간의 차이를 보였다 (p = 0.001). PTV에 대한 최대목표선량은 leaf width와 연관성이 없었다. conformity index의 경우, mMLCs와 120 MLCs (p = 0.003)에서, mMLCs와 80 MLCs (p = 0.003)에서 통계적인 차이를 보였다. leaf width의 변화에 따라 방사선에 조사되는 정상조직의 부피를 비교하였고, leaf width가 3mm인 경우 정상조직 보존에 보다 적합함을 확인하였다.
We compared intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) treatment plans with commercially available multileaf collimators (MLCs) of different leaf width for intracranial lesions. Twelve cases previously treated with micro-MLCs(mMLCs) were replanned using the Varian 120 and 80 MLCs. These collimators have minimum leaf width of 3mm, 5 mm and 10 mm at isocenter, respectively. These three plans were compared with respect to the uniformity and the conformity indices, doses to normal tissue. For the uniformity index of planning target volume (PTV),there was no statistically significant difference between mMLCs with 120 MLCs (p = 0.06). However, there was a little difference between mMLCs with 80 MLCs (p = 0.001). Maximum target dose to the PTV showedno dependency with respect to the leaf width. On the contrary, there were statistically significant differences in the conformity indices between mMLCs and 120 MLCs (p = 0.003) and between mMLCs and 80 MLCs (p = 0.003).The volumetric increments for MLCs with leaf widths of 5 mm and 10 mm were 6.3% and 23.2% for the normal tissue Irradiated to = 50% dose, and 8.7% and 32.7% for the normal tissue Irradiated to = 70% dose, respectively, compared to the volume for MLCs with leaf width of 3 mm. This shows that for the sparing of normal tissue, MLCs with leaf width of 3 mm are more effective, compared to MLCs with leaf widths of 5 mm and 10 mm.
