Abstract

Purpose : To evaluate the results of absorbed and effective doses using CBCT and 4D-CBCT settings for lung cancer. Materials and Methods : This experimental study. Measurements were performed using a Anderson rando phantom with OSLD(optically stimulated luminescent dosimeters). It was performed computed tomography(Lightspeed GE, USA) in order to express the major organs of the human body. Measurements were obtained a mean value is repeated three times each. Evaluations of effective dose and absorbed dose were performed the CL-IX-Thorax mode and Truebeam-Thorax mode CBCT. Additionally, compared Truebeam-Thorax mode CBCT with Truebeam-Thorax mode 4D-CBCT(Four-dimensional Cone Beam Computed Tomography) Results : Average absorbed dose in the CBCT of CL-IX was measured in lung 2.505cGy, heart 2.595cGy, liver 2.145cGy, stomach 1.934cGy, skin 2.233cGy, in case of Truebeam, It was measured lung 1.725cGy, heart 2.034cGy, liver 1.616cGy, stomach 1.470cGy, skin 1.445cGy. In case of 4D-CBCT, It was measured lung 3.849cGy, heart 4.578cGy, liver 3.497cGy, stomach 3.179cGy, skin 3.319cGy Average effective dose, considered tissue weighting and radiation weighting, in the CBCT of CL-IX was measured lung 2.164mSv, heart 2.241mSVv, liver 0.136mSv, stomach 1.668mSv, skin 0.009mSv, in case of Turebeam, it was measured lung 1.725mSv, heart 1.757mSv, liver 0.102mSv, stomach 1.270mSv, skin 0.005mSv, In case of 4D-CBCT, It was measured lung 3.326mSv, heart 3.952mSv, liver 0.223mSv, stomach 2.747mSv, skin 0.013mSv Conclusion : As a result, absorbed dose and effective Dose in the CL-IX than Truebeam was higher about 1.3 times and in the 4D-CBCT Truebeam than CBCT of Truebeam was higher about 2.2times However, a large movement of the patient and respiratory gated radiotherapy may be more accurate treatment in 4D-CBCT. Therefore, it will be appropriate to selectively used.

목 적 : 폐암 환자의 CBCT와 4D-CBCT를 이용한 영상촬영 시 인접 장기에 미치는 방사선량을 비교 평가해 보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법 : 본 실험을 진행하기 위해 인체모형팬텀(Anderson Rando Phantom, USA)을 이용하였고, 선량측정 위치는 주요 장기가 위치하는 단면에 광유도발광선량계(Opitcally Stimulated Luminescent Dosimeter, OSLD) 1~6개를 부착하였다. 인체내부의 주요 장기를 표현하기 위해 전산화단층촬영(Lightspeed GE, USA)을 하였다. 선형가속기(CL-IX)와 선형가속기(Truebeam 2.5) thorax 모드에서 인체모형팬텀 폐 하부 기준으로 CBCT 방사선량을 측정하였고, 추가적으로 선형가속기(Truebeam 2.5) thorax 모드에서 4D-CBCT 방사선량을 측정하여 기존 CBCT와 비교 하였다. 각각 3회 반복 측정하여 평균값을 얻었다. 결 과 : CBCT로 촬영한 평균 흡수선량 측정치는 CL-IX의 경우 폐 2.505 cGy, 심장 2.595 cGy, 간 2.156 cGy, 위 1.934 cGy, 피부에 2.233 cGy 이었으며, Truebeam의 경우 폐 1.725 cGy, 심장 2.034 cGy, 간 1.616 cGy, 위 1.470 cGy, 피부에 1.445 cGy 이었다. 4D-CBCT 촬영 시 폐 3.849 cGy, 심장 4.578 cGy, 간 3.497 cGy, 위 3.179 cGy, 피부에3.319 cGy 이었다. 조직 가중치와 방사선 가중치를 고려한 평균 유효선량 값은 CBCT의 경우 CL-IX에서 폐 2.164 mSv, 심장 2.241 mSv, 간 0.136 mSv, 위 1.668 mSv, 피부 0.009 mSv 이었고 Truebeam의 경우 폐 1.725 mSv, 심장 1.757 mSv, 간 0.102 mSv, 위 1.270 mSv, 피부에 0.005 mSv 이었다. 4D-CBCT에서는 폐 3.326 mSv, 심장 3.952 mSv, 간 0.223 mSv, 위 2.747 mSv, 피부에 0.013 mSv 이었다. 결 론 : 폐암 환자의 CBCT 촬영 시 Truebeam보다 CL-IX 장비에서 받는 선량이 1.3배 정도 더 높게 나왔으며, Truebeam 장비에서 CBCT 보다 4D-CBCT에서 환자가 받는 선량이 2.2배 정도 높게 나왔다. 하지만 4D-CBCT는 환자의 움직임이 큰 경우나 호흡동조 영상유도방사선치료 시 좀 더 정확한 방사선 치료를 할 수 있어 선택적으로 사용하는 것이 타당 할 것이다.
