전립선암에서 세기조절방사선치료와 입체조형방사선치료의 선량분포 특성을 비교하였다. 세기조절방사선치료에서는 치료계획표적용적에 200 cGy를 33회 조사하여 6,600 cGy가 조사되도록 하였다. 세기조절방사선치료에서는 PTV의 최대선량이 104.4%이었으며, 최소선량이 89.5%였으며, 삼차원입체조형치료에서는 PTV의 최대선량이 105.3%이었으며, 최소선량이 85.5%을 나타내었다. 100%에 대한 CI는 세기조절방사선치료에서 1.02였으며, 삼차원입체조형치료에서는 0.97을 나타내었다. 중요장기 직장에 대해서 세기조절방사선치료에서는 5,000 cGy 이상이 34.0%였으며, 삼차원입체조형치료에서는 63.3%였고, 방광에 대해서 세기조절방사선치료에서는 4,000 cGy 이상이 30.1%였으며, 삼차원입체조형치료에서는 30.6%였고, 오른쪽 대퇴골두부에 대해서 세기조절방사선치료에서는 2,000 cGy 이상이 9.5%였으며, 삼차원입체조형치료에서는 17.5%였고, 왼쪽 대퇴골두부에 대해서 세기조절방사선치료에서는 2,000 cGy 이상이 10.6%였으며, 삼차원입체조형치료에서는 18.3%을 나타내었다. 삼차원입체조형치료와 세기조절방사선치료의 비교에서 세기조절방사선치료가 삼차원입체조형치료에 비해 PTV의 선량분포에서는 5%의 정도 선량분포의 이득이 있었으며, 직장 선량에 대해서는 5,000 cGy 이상 선량에서 29.3%의 감소가 있었고, 방광 선량에 대해서는 거의 비슷한 분포를 나타내었고, 오른쪽 대퇴골두부의 선량에서는 8.0%, 왼쪽 대퇴골두부의 선량에서는 7.7%의 선량 이득을 나타내었다.
The aim of this study was to compare the dose distribution of intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) with 3 dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT) in prostate cancer. The IMRT plan and the 3DCRT plan used the 9 fields technique, respectively. In IMRT, tumor dose was a total dose of 66 Gy at 2.0 Gy per day, 5 days a week for 5 weeks. All cases were following the dose volume histogram (DVH) constraints. The maximum and minimum tumor dose constraints were 6,700 cGy and 6,500 cGy, respectively. The rectum dose constraints were <35% over 50 Gy. The bladder dose constraints were <35% over 40 Gy. The femur head dose constraints were <15% over 20 Gy. Tumor dose in the 3DCRT were 66 Gy. In IMRT, the maximum dose of PTV was 104.4% and minimum dose was 89.5% for given dose. In 3DCRT, the maximum dose of PTV was 105.3% and minimum dose was 85.5% for given dose. The rectum dose was 34.0% over 50 Gy in IMRT compared with 63.3% in 3DCRT. The bladder dose was 30.1% over 40 Gy in IMRT compared with 30.6% in 3DCRT. The right femur head dose was 9.5% over 20 Gy in IMRT compared with 17.5% in 3DCRT. The left femur head dose was 10.6% over 20 Gy in IMRT compared with 18.3% in 3 DCRT. The dose of critical organs (rectum, bladder, and femur head) in IMRT showed to reduce than dose of 3DCRT. The rectum dose over 50 Gy in IMRT was reduced 29.3% than 3DCRT. The bladder dose over 40 Gy in IMRT was similar to 3DCRT. The femur head dose over 20 Gy in IMRT was reduced about 7~8% than 3DCRT.
