- W2319128533 abstract "Purpose/Objective(s)Daily cone beam CT scans (CBCTs) provide 3D anatomic image guidance for high-precision radiation delivery in the treatment of localized prostate cancer. The daily CBCT may show non-optimal PTV coverage thereby warranting maneuvers such as changes in bladder or rectal volumes, followed by a repeat CBCT (rCBCT) to assess these changes. The purpose of this study is to prospectively determine the reasons for rCBCTs during image guided radiation therapy (IGRT) for prostate cancer and if these studies were clinically relevant.Materials/MethodsBetween 4/11/11 and 9/19/11, a total of 674 patients underwent IGRT for prostate cancer using daily CBCT scans at our multi-site institution. A shrinking field technique was typically used to deliver a dose of 8100 cGy in 45 fractions for definitive prostate treatment or 7200 cGy in 40 fractions in the post-op setting. A physician reviewed each CBCT on a daily basis, and the images were compared to CT-simulation images of the prostate, gold fiducial markers, bony anatomy, seminal vesicles, bladder, and rectum. If the initial CBCT was considered unacceptable, some maneuver to improve the anatomic geometry was performed, followed by a rCBCT. Any patient receiving a rCBCT was prospectively evaluated with documentation of objective criteria for the reason for rCBCT and outcome of the subsequent scan relative to that reason. Objective criteria categories for rCBCT included issues relating to the bladder, rectum, small bowel, PTV coverage and all other.ResultsA total of 24,381 CBCT scans were performed on 674 patients. Of these, 2635 (10.8%) were rCBCTs, with 2425 (92.0%) of these repeated only once, 204 (7.7%) repeated twice, and 6 (0.2%) repeated three times. The reason for the repeat scans was a bladder issue in 1273 cases (48.3%), rectal issue in 886 cases (33.6%), PTV coverage issue in 494 cases (18.7%), small bowel issue in 17 cases (0.6%), and other issue in 52 cases (2.0%). A number of patients had multiple reasons for rCBCT, most commonly bladder and rectal issues in 341 cases (12.9%). The rCBCT resolved the original problem and the patient underwent treatment in 2100 cases (79.7%). In 244 instances (9.3%), the patient was not treated after the first rCBCT due to an unresolved or new issue on rCBCT. In 293 cases (11.1% of repeat scans), the patient was treated despite an unresolved or new issue on the repeat scan. 24 patients (0.9%) underwent a repeat CT-simulation due to repetitive CBCTs.ConclusionsOver 97% of rCBCT scans in patients undergoing IMRT/IGRT for prostate cancer were performed for bladder, rectal, or PTV coverage issues. Although 89.0% of rCBCTs provided clinically relevant information which altered the treatment algorithm, this study clearly demonstrates the need for protocols to enhance assessment of the pelvic anatomy prior to CBCT to reduce the incidence of such studies.
