To investigate the use of a system using electromagnetic tracking (EMT), post-processing and an error-detection algorithm for detecting errors resolving uncertainties in high-dose-rate brachytherapy catheter digitization treatment planning.EMT was used to localize 15 catheters inserted into phantom stepwise acquisition technique. Five distinct experiments were performed. Noise associated with calculated. The dwell location configuration extracted from EMT data. A CT scan performed, five...
In gynecologic cancers, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is the modality of choice for visualizing tumors and their surroundings because superior soft-tissue contrast. Real-time MR guidance catheter placement in interstitial brachytherapy facilitates target coverage, would be further improved by providing intraprocedural estimates dosimetric coverage. A major obstacle to dosimetry time needed trajectory reconstruction. Herein authors evaluate an active tracking (MRTR) system which provides...
Lower extremity lymphedema adversely affects quality of life by causing discomfort, impaired mobility and increased risk infection. The goal this study is to investigate factors that influence the likelihood in patients with endometrial cancer who undergo adjuvant radiation or without chemotherapy. A retrospective chart review identified all stage I-III had a hysterectomy complete staging lymphadenectomy therapy between January 2006 February 2013. Patients new-onset after treatment were...
Importance Patients with recurrent or unresectable skin cancers have limited treatment options. Diffusing alpha-emitter radiation therapy (DaRT), a novel solid tumor management strategy using alpha-particle interstitial brachytherapy, may address this challenge. Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of DaRT to manage cancers. Design, Setting, Participants This prospective cohort study patients who received 2-week 3-week course were followed up for 24 weeks after during 2021 2022...
Purpose To develop an active MR-tracking system to guide placement of metallic devices for radiation therapy. Methods An actively tracked stylet brachytherapy was constructed by adding printed-circuit micro-coils a commercial stylet. The coil design optimized electromagnetic simulation, and has radio-frequency lobe pattern extending ∼5 mm beyond the strong B0 inhomogeneity region near metal surface. sequence with phase-field dithering used overcome residual effects B1 inhomogeneities caused...
Radioactive seed localization (RSL) provides a precise and efficient method for removing non-palpable breast lesions. It has proven to be valuable addition surgery, improving perioperative logistics patient satisfaction. This retrospective review examines the lessons learned from high-volume cancer center's RSL program after 10 years of practice over 25 000 cases. We provide an updated model assessing patient's radiation dose implantation demonstrate safety staff members. Additionally, we...
Abstract Background Diffusing alpha‐emitters Radiation Therapy (“Alpha DaRT”) is a promising new radiation therapy modality for treating bulky tumors. 224 Ra‐carrying sources are inserted intratumorally, producing therapeutic alpha‐dose region with total size of few millimeter via the diffusive motion Ra's alpha‐emitting daughters. Clinical studies Alpha DaRT have reported 100% positive response (30%–100% shrinkage within several weeks), post‐insertion swelling in close to half cases. While...
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect departmental planning techniques on appropriate in-vivo source tracking error thresholds for high dose rate (HDR) prostate brachytherapy (BT) treatments, and determine if a single threshold would be same patient anatomy.The prostate, rectum, urethra were contoured transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) dataset. Anonymized DICOM files disseminated 16 departments who created an HDR BT treatment plan dataset with prescription 15 Gy in fraction....
