To investigate the feasibility, efficiency, and delivery accuracy of volumetric modulated arc therapy with constant dose rate (VMAT-CDR) for whole-pelvic radiotheraw (WPRT) of endometrial cancer.The ninefield intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), VMAT with variable dose-rate (VMAT-VDR), and VMATCDR plans were created for 9 patients with endometrial cancer undergoing WPRT.The dose distribution of planning target volume (PTV), organs at risk (OARs), and normal tissue (NT) were compared.The monitor units (MUs) and treatment delivery time were also evaluated.For each VMAT-CDR plan, a dry run was performed to assess the dosimetric accuracy with MatriXX from IBA.Compared with IMRT, the VMAT-CDR plans delivered a slightly greater V20 of the bowel, bladder, pelvis bone, and NT, but significantly decreased the dose to the high-dose region of the rectum and pelvis bone.The MUs decreased from 1105 with IMRT to 628 with VMAT-CDR.The delivery time also decreased from 9.5 to 3.2 minutes.The average gamma pass rate was 95.6% at the 3%/3 mm criteria with MatriXX pretreatment verification for 9 patients.VMAT-CDR can achieve comparable plan quality with significant shorter delivery time and smaller number of MUs compared with IMRT for patients with endometrial cancer undergoing WPRT.It can be accurately delivered and be an alternative to IMRT on the linear accelerator without VDR capability.

目的:对12例三维适形或调强治疗的肺癌病例进行回顾性肺NTCP分析,加深对肺癌三维适形及调强治疗认识.为同等条件下不同治疗方案的正常组织并发症概率(NTCP)物理学的优选,提供一定依据.方法:引用第三方NTCP计算实例,验证NTCP软件计算办法和可行性.而后对12例肺癌病例(4例为三维适形治疗,8例为调强治疗)进行NTCP计算和统计学分析.结果:调强治疗病例患肺NTCP,双肺NTCP与三维适形治疗
文章简单叙述了OUR-XGD旋转式伽玛刀的电气控制原理，对其故障现象进行分析，指出此次伽玛刀的故障，主要是由ACS控制器长年的运行(9年时间)，内部的芯片老化接连出现了2个问题而引起设备故障，在进行了硬件的组装后，设备能够进行正常的通讯，通过对电气的线路的更改和软件程序的修改，很好地解决了该设备的故障，保证了病人的正常治疗。
