- W4307145403 abstract "<h3>Purpose/Objective(s)</h3> Combining methods of conformal dose delivery with ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) beams is advantageous for realizing the benefits of the FLASH effect in clinical treatments. We hypothesize that deployment of intensity modulation in passive electron FLASH radiotherapy through treatment plan optimization is feasible. <h3>Materials/Methods</h3> A beam model of an electron FLASH irradiator (delivering ∼300Gy/s at the isocenter) in the decimal ElectronRT treatment planning system (TPS) was validated with film measured lateral and percent-depth-dose (PDD) profiles. Plans were developed comparing collimated open fields and intensity modulated electron beams achieved with cylindrical passive metal compensators that vary in spacing and size. Homogeneity and conformity were quantified for plans developed in a water phantom and anonymized patient cases considering constraints in prescribed dose to the target volume and minimizing dose to organs-at-risk (OAR). <h3>Results</h3> The film measured profiles and TPS beam model agreed on average to within 1% and 2% for lateral profile and PDD, respectively. For a large 15 × 15 cm<sup>2</sup> field in a water phantom the intensity modulation improved the beam flatness (∼30% to <5%) and penumbra (35 mm to 15mm) at 3 cm depth while retaining UHDR in the treatment field with a 38% reduction in central axis output while still retaining the UHDR conditions (∼180Gy/sec). The PDD exhibited <2% difference along the central axis and minimal changes to symmetry, shift, and practical range. In the rib metastasis case, the unmodulated and modulated plans treat the tumor volume with a homogeneity index (HI), improvement by 0.2. In the facial orbital plan, the conformity index improved by 8% with an improvement in HI by 0.05 and comparable dose to OARs. <h3>Conclusion</h3> Intensity modulation of electrons FLASH is achievable and improves homogeneity of prescribed dose with proper treatment constraints while reducing hot spots for clinical plans. Depending on the treatment case intensity modulation can also generate superior dose distributions while retaining the UHDR conditions to best exploit the FLASH effect. Future study will focus on demonstrating dosimetric benefits quantified by tumor control probability and normal tissue complication probability models in a larger number of relevant cases." @default.
