• W1551768265 abstract "This doctoral thesis addresses dynamic intensity modulation by means of physical beam modifiers. The principles of gravity-oriented devices were generalized and extended, preserving principles of a beam shaping, but introducing motor-driven “patient-oriented” beam modifying devices. Beam modifying devices were divided in two categories: protectors and shapers. The protectors are diminished copies of the Organs At Risk (OARs) and stay parallel to them during gantry rotation, keeping them in the attenuated field for every gantry angle. Shapers are placed at the both sides of the protector to ensure uniform dose in the Planning Target Volume (PTV). Mathematical formalism for calculations of the dimensions and the initial coordinates of the beam modifying devices was developed as well as the laws of their motion during gantry rotation were derived. A software tool, incorporating the mathematical background, with user interface to facilitate the introduction of the input parameters was created. The software module was subsequently integrated into a Monte Carlo Radiation Therapy Simulator (MCRTS), used to simulate particle transport through the designed system.Simulation studies of field shaping in rotational therapy by means of beam modifying devices were carried out. Dose distributions in solid-geometry and voxel-based neck models were evaluated. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the shapers to modify the dose distribution outside the protected area was studied. The results of simulation studies showed that rotational therapy with beam modifying devices offers adequate protection of the OAR and a uniform dose distribution outside the protected region. Studies using shapers of different materials were also carried out and resulted in similar dose distributions.Additionally, the effect of protector’s parameters on the dose distribution in rotational therapy was studied in the thesis. A range of materials, consisting of commonly used for protection in radiotherapy, as well as by some new metal-polymer composites was under investigation. The metal-polymer composites can rival the lead in the protection of vital organs if the density provided is high. The presented technique has showed promising results in terms of conformal dose delivery and can be a preferred choice in radiotherapy departments due to comprehensive and adequate protection of the OAR and uniform dose in PTV ensured as well as of its cost effectiveness." @default.
