CONFORMAL THERAPY
It is described as radiotherapy
treatment that creates a high dose
volume that is shaped to closely
“ Conform” to the desired target
volumes while minimizing the
dose to critical normal tissues.
![Page 6: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Features of Conformal Radiotherapy
1)Target volumes are defined in three dimensions using contours from a volumetric imaging modality
2)Multiple beam directions are used to crossfire on the targets.
3)Individual beams are shaped or intensity modulated to create a dose distribution that conforms to the target volume and desired dose levels.
4)Use of image guidance,accurate patient setup ,immobilization and management of motion to ensure accurate delivery of the planned dose distributions to the patient.

Types of Conformal Radiation
� Two broad subtypes :
− Techniques aiming to
employ geometric field
shaping alone( 3D-CRT)
− Techniques to modulate
the intensity of fluence
across the geometrically-
shaped field (IMRT)
Geometrical Field shaping
Geometrical Field shaping with
Intesity Modulation

WHAT IS 3-D CRT
To plan & deliver treatment based on 3D anatomicinformation. such that resultant dose distribution conforms tothe target volume closely in terms of
Adequate dose to tumor &
Minimum dose to normal tissues.
The 3D CRT plans generallyuse increased number of radiation beamsto improve dose conformation and conventional beammodifiers (e.g., wedges and/or compensating filters) are used.

Intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT)
IMRT is an advanced formof 3D CRTIMRT refers to a radiation therapy technique inwhich
nonuniformfluence is delivered to the patient fromanygiven position of the treatment beam
using computer-aided optimization to attain certainspecified dosimetric and clinical objectives.

IMRT RATIONALE
More conformal than 3D CRT
A sharp fall off PTV boundary
Reduction of normal tissue dose
To create concave isodose surfaces orlow-dose areas surrounded by high dose.
Lower rate of complication-lower cost ofpatient care following treatment
Large fields and boosts can be integratedin single treatment plan
Radiobiologic advantage
![Page 16: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Divides each treatment field into multiple segments upto(500/angle)
Allows dose escalation to most aggressive tumor cells; best protection of healthy tissue
Modulates radiation intensity; gives distinct dose to each segment
Uses 9+ beam angles, thousands of segments
Improves precision/accuracy
Requires inverse treatment planning software to calculate dose distribution
![Page 17: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
LIMITATIONS OF IMRT
Many dose distributions physically not achievable
Interfraction variation
Positioning
Displacement and distortion of internal anatomy
Intrafraction motion
Changes of physical and radiobiologic characteristic of tumor and normal tissue

IMRT DELIVERY
• Having calculated the fluence distributions orfluence maps for each field angle, one nowneedsto have a means of delivering those fluence maps.
• Methods to deliver an IMRTtreatment are:– Compensator based IMRT– Multileaf collimator (MLC) based
• Static or step & shoot mode
• Dynamic mode
– Intensity modulated arc therapy (IMAT)– Tomotherapy
![Page 21: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
COMPENSATOR BASED IMRT• compensators are used to modulate intensity.• compensators must be constructed for each gantry position
employed and then placed in the beamfor each treatment.• Adv. of physical attenuators are
– Highest MU efficiency– Devoid of problems such as
• leaf positioning accuracy,• interleaf leakage and• intraleaf transmission,• rounded leaf, and• tongue-and-groove effect that are intrinsic to MLC systems.
• Disadv of physical attenuators– issues related to material choice, machining accuracy, andplacement
accuracy.– Labour intensive as each field has unique intensity map & requires
separate compensator.

STEP & SHOOT IMRT• In static or step & shoot mode the intensity modulated fieldsare delivered
with a sequence of small segments or subfields, each subfield with a uniformintensity.
• The beam is only turned on when the MLC leaves are stationary in each of theprescribed subfield positions.
• Adv. of SMLC– Simple concept resembles conventional treatment– Easy to plan, deliver & to verify– an interrupted treatment is easy to resume– fewer MUs in comparison to DMLC– less demanding in terms of QA
• Disadv. of SMLC– Slow dose delivery (5 min/field)– Hard on MLC hardware
![Page 24: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
DYNAMIC MODE
• In the DMLC or sliding windowmode, the leaves of MLC aremoving during irradiation i.e. each pair of opposing leaf sweepsacross target volume under computer control.
• Adv. Of DMLC– Better dose homogeneity for target volumes
– Shorter treatment time for complex IM beams
• Disadv of DMLC– More demanding in terms of QA
• leaf position (gap), leaf speed need to be checked
– Beam remains on throughout – leakage radiation increased
– Total MU required is more than that for SMLC• increased leakage dose

SET UP & POSITIONING
• Important component of conformal RT
• Position– Should be comfortable & Reproducible– Should be suitable for beam entry, with minimum accessoriesin beam
path
• For this purpose positioning devices may be used
• Positioning devices are ancillary devices used to help maintainthe patient in a non-standard treatment position.

IMAGE ACQUISITION
• CT is done with pt in thetreatment positionwith immobilizationdevice if used.
• Radio opaque fiducialare placed .
• These fiducial assist in any coordinate transformation needed asa result of 3D planning and eventual plan implementation.
• A topogramis generated to insure that patient alignment iscorrect & then using localizer, area to be scanned is selected.
• The FOV is selectedto permit visualization of the externalcontour, which is required for accurate dose calculations.
• Using site dependent protocols, images are acquired.
• The planning CT data set is transferred to a 3D-TPS orworkstation via a computer network.

Virtual Simulation Beam Eye View-BEV
• In BEV observer’s viewingpoint is at the source ofradiation looking out along axisof radiation beam.– Demonstrates geometric coverage
of target volume by the beam– Shielding & MLCs are designed
on BEV– Useful in identifying best gantry,
collimator, and couch angles toirradiate target & avoid adjacentnormal structures by interactivelymoving patient and treatmentbeam.

PLANNING
• For planning, the 3D TPS must have the capability to simulateeach of the treatment machine motion functions, including
– Gantry angle,– Collimator length, width & angle,– MLC leaf settings,– Couch latitude, longitude, height & angle.
![Page 56: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
FORWARD PLANNING
• For 3D CRT forward planning is used.
• Beamarrangement is selected based on clinical experience.
• Using BEV, beamaperture is designed
• Dose is prescribed.
• 3D dose distribution is calculated.
• Then plan is evaluated.
• Plan is modified based on dose distribution evaluation, usingvarious combinations of– Beam , collimator & couch angle,
– Beam weights &
– Beam modifying devices (wedges, compensators) to get desired dosedistribution.
![Page 57: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
IMRT PLANNING
• IMRT planning is aninverse planning.• It is so called because this approach starts with desired result (a
uniform target dose) & works backward toward incident beamintensities.
• After contouring, treatment fields & their orientation ( beamangle) around patient is selected.
• Next step is to select the parameters used to drive theoptimization algorithmto a particular solution.
• Optimization refers to mathematical technique of– finding the best physical and technically possible treatment plan
– to fulfill specified physical and clinical criteria,
– under certain constraints
– using sophisticated computer algorithm

• Dose-volume constraints for the target andnormal tissues are entered into the optimizationprogramof TPS– Maximumand minimumtarget doses– Maximumnormal tissues doses– Priority scores for target and normal tissues
• The dose prescription for IMRTis morestructured and complex than single-valuedprescription used in 3-D CRT& conventionalRT
• Ideally some dose value is prescribed to everyvoxel.

OPTIMIZATION
� Refers to the technique of finding the best physical and technically possible treatment plan to fulfill the specified physical and clinical criteria.
� A mathematical technique that aims to maximize (or minimize) a score under certain constraints.
� It is one of the most commonly used techniques for inverse planning.
![Page 61: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
• During the optimization process, each beamisdivided into small “beamlets”
• Intensity of each is varied until the optimaldose distribution is derived
• We can Optimize following parameters– Intensity maps– Number of intensity levels– Beam angles
– Number of beams
– Beam Energy
![Page 62: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
� Types:
− Physical Optimization Criteria: Based on physical dose coverage
− Biological Optimization Criteria: Based on TCP and NTCP calculation
� A total objective function (score) is then derived from these criteria.
� Priorities are defined to tell the algorithm the relative importance of the different planning objectives (penalties)
� The algorithm attempts to maximize the score based on the criteria and penalties.

PLAN EVALUATION
• The following tools are used in the evaluation of the planned dose distribution:– 2-D display
• Isodose lines
• Color wash
• DVHs (Dose volume histograms )
– Dose distribution statistics
![Page 65: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
2D EVALUATION
• Isodose lines superimposed onCT images
• Color wash - Spectrumof colorssuperimposed on the anatomicinformation represented bymodulation of intensity– Gives quick over view of dose
distribution– Easy to assess overdosage in
normal tissue that are notcontoured.
– To assess dose heterogeneity insidePTV
• Slice by slice evaluation of dosedistribution can be done.

DOSE VOLUME HISTOGRAM - DVH
• DVHs summarize the information contained inthe 3-D dose distribution & quantitativelyevaluates treatment plans.
• DVHs are usually displayed in the formof ‘percent volume of total volume’ against dose.
• The DVHmay be represented in two forms:– Cumulative integral DVH– Differential DVH.
![Page 67: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
CUMULATIVE DVH• It is plot of volume of a given
structure receiving a certaindose.
• Any point on the cumulativeDVH curve shows the volumeof a given structure that receivesthe indicated dose orhigher.
• It start at 100% of the volumefor zero dose, since all of thevolume receives at least morethan zero Gy.
![Page 68: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
DIFFERENTIAL DVH
• The direct or differential DVH isa plot of volume receiving a dosewithin a specified dose interval(or dose bin) as a function ofdose.
• It shows extent of dose variationwithin a given structure.
• The ideal DVH for a targetvolume would be a single columnindicating that 100% of volumereceives prescribed dose.
• For a critical structure, the DVHmay contain several peaksindicating that different parts ofthe organ receive different doses.
DVH - target vol.
DVH - OAR

3-D DOSE CLOUD
• Map isodoses in threedimensions andoverlay the resultingisosurface on a 3-Ddisplay with surfacerenderings of target& other contouredorgans.
![Page 70: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Dose statistics
• It provide quantitative information on the volume of the target or criticalstructure and on the dose received by that volume.
• These include:– The minimum dose to the volume– The maximum dose to the volume– The mean dose to the volume– Modal dose
• Useful in dose reporting.
![Page 71: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
PLAN EVALUATION
• The planned dose distribution approved by theradiation oncologist is one in which– a uniform dose is delivered to the target volume
(e.g., +7% and –5% of prescribed dose)– with doses to critical structures held belowsome
tolerance level specified by the radiation oncologist
• Acceptable dose distribution is one that differsfrom desired dose distribution– within preset limits of dose and– only in regions where desired dose distribution can’t
be physically achieved.
![Page 72: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
PLAN IMPLEMENTATION
• Once the treatment plan has been evaluated &approved, documentation for plan implementationmust be generated.
• It includes– beamparameter settings transferred to the treatment
machine’s record and verify system,– MLC parameters communicated to computer system
that controls MLCsystemof the treatment machine,– DRR generation & printing or transfer to an image
database.

IMRT PLAN VERIFICATION
• The goal is to verify that correct dose & dose distribution will be delivered to the patient.
• One needs to check that– the plan has been properly computed– leaf sequence files & treatment parameters charted and/or stored in the
R/V server are correct &
– plan will be executable.• Before first treatment, verification is done to check
– MU (or absolute dose to a point) – MLC leaf sequences or fluence maps– Dose distribution

Factors that contribute to positional or geometric uncertainty in target and nontarget organs
•Errors in target delineation and localization
•Interfraction patient setup errors and organ motion
•Intrafraction motion such as patient movement
•Respiratory and cardiac motion, and peristalsis
![Page 79: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Stereotaxy
• Stereotactic radiosurgery ( SRS ) and stereotactic body radiotherapy ( SBRT ) have an established but evolving role in the management of malignant and benign conditions
• They have altered the way clinicians think about fractionation, and therefore they rank among the most important advances in
radiation oncology
![Page 80: Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology …aroi.org/aroi-cms/uploads/media/15836536019.-Dr.-Kaustav...Dr. Kaustav Talapatra Head , Radiation Oncology Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042520/5f38be62aa166125491cca53/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
• Ideal image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) system should have
three essential elements:
– Three-dimensional (3-D) and, if possible, motion (four
dimensional (4-D)) assessment of the target volume
– Efficient comparison of the image data with reference
data
– Efficacious and fast process for clinically meaningful
intervention (preferably fully automated).

ASTRO Definition
• Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is
an external beam radiation therapy method
that very precisely delivers a high dose of
radiation to an extracranial target. SBRT is
