Abstract

Purpose : Retrospective evaluation of setup changes using the corrected position during helical tomotherapy Materials and Methods : Head and neck cancer patients were randomly sampled and summarized into 3 groups: Group 1(32) Brain, Group 2 2(28)Maxillar, Nasal cavity, Group 3 (35) Nasopharynx(NPX), Tongue, Tonsil, and Oropharynx(OPX). In 3 groups, the statistical tests based on repeated measurements among 30 times of the duration of treatment by applying X, Y, Z axis errors, roll, weight changes, and vectors as variables. Results : The statistical test results showed that there was no difference between x-axis (p = 0.458) and y-axis (p=0.986) and in roll (p = 0.037), weight change (p <0.001), and the vector (p <0.001). In addition, the pattern between the three groups based on the fraction revealed no difference in x-axis (p = 0.430) and roll (p = 0.299) but a difference in y-axis (.023), weight change (p = 0.001), and vector (p = 0.028). Conclusion : The results of the retrospective evaluation found the change in the group 3 with respect Y, Z, weight, and vector and a larger random error during the treatment including low neck.

목 적 : 두경부 환자 토모 치료 시 위치 보정한 좌표값을 이용한 환자의 Setup 변화율을 후향적 평가를 하고자 한다. 재료 및 방법 : 2010년 01월에서 2012년12월까지 토모테라피 치료를 받은 두경부 환자 중 무작위(95)로 샘플링하여 3그룹으로 정리하였다. 그룹 1(32)Brain, 그룹2(28)Maxillar, Nasal cavity, 그룹3(35) Nosopharynx(NPX), Tongue, Tonsil, Oropharynx(OPX)로 분류하였다. 3그룹 간에 있어 X 축, Y 축, Z 축 오차, Roll, 체중변화, Vector를 변수로 하여, 30회 치료기간 중 반복측정에 의한 통계적 검정을 시행하였다. 결 과 : 통계적 검정 결과 fraction에 따른 차이는 x축(p=0.458), y축(0.989)은 차이가 없었으며 z축(p=0.001), roll(p=0.037), 체중변화(p<0.001), Vector(p<0.001)은 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 fraction에 따라 3그룹간의 패턴은 x축(p=0.430), roll(p=0.299)은 차이가 없었으며 y축(0.023), y축(0.023), 체중변화(p=0.001), Vector(p=0.028)은 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 결 론 : 후향적 평가를 시행한 결과 그룹3즉, Y, Z, 체중변화, Vector 변화에 대하여 알 수 있었고 Low neck을 포함한 치료 시 Random error가 커짐을 통계적 알 수 있었다.
