    The hippocampus has three anatomic subdivisions: the head, body, and tail; note that the head
    is inferior or caudad, the body is superoposterior and the tail is most cephalad (superior) and
    posterior, and an overall “banana” shape emerges on sagittal images, located in the plane of the
    lateral ventricle.

                      Six static IMRT
                      beams were used
                      with 3 non-planar
                      beams.

                      The beam was on for
                      11 minutes.

Frameless Cranial Stereotaxy
• Upper palate based immobilization
   – Good dentition helpful
   – Must be able to tolerate the mouthpiece
• Mask based
   – More uncertainty
• Relocatable
   – Hypofractionation
      – Larger lesions
      – Near dose sensitive structures
      – Post op cavity
      – Prior RT
   – Image guided
      – Skull is an excellent fiducial marker
   – Reusable
• Not restricted by physical limitations
Radiation oncology team
•   Therapists
•   Nurses and nurse practitioners
•   Dosimetrists
•   Medical physicists
•   Clinical engineers
•   Schedulers
•   Secretaries
•   Radiation oncologists


Strong teamwork and q/a program helps ensure proper and
  safe radiation delivery
Conclusions

• Understanding brain anatomy and dose
 constraints are essential.
• Technical advances in radiation oncology have
 allowed optimization of radiation delivery for brain
 tumors.
• Dose painting, dose sculpting, and conformal
 avoidance for brain tumors can be achieved given
 the advances in technology, imaging and
 treatment planning.

Notas do Editor

  1. The goal of radiation therapy is to maximize tumor control while minimizing complications. This axes of this graph represent Dose on the X-axis and tumor control or complications to normal tissues on the Y-axis. With respect to tumor control, as dose increases, the chance of tumor control increases. Likewise as dose increases, so does the probability of complication (represented by the red curve). Both these curves are sigmoidal in shape. Initially with low doses, there is little cell kill, and hence little tumor control. At a certain dose, the probability of cell kill increases dramatically, and hence high tumor control. However, beyond a certain dose, the curve again flattens so that increases in dose (while still toxic to tumor), does not increase the probability of further cell killing beyond what a lower dose can achieve. The risk of complication follows this same paradigm. Low dose has little chance of causing complication. However, at certain doses, the complication rate climbs sharply. These curves tend to be parallel, and the goal of radiation oncology is to maximize the potential for tumor killing (or tumor control) while minimizing the potential for normal tissue complications. The white vertical dashed line represents this compromise in therapeutic efficacy to achieve maximal tumor control with minimal normal tissue complication.
  2. Diagram depicting the importance of optimizing imaging performance based on the fundamental objectives of radiotherapy (outer circle). Trade-offs among geometric integrity, tissue contrast, and spatial resolution must be considered when designing time-efficient image acquisition protocols.

  4. Due to its complete integration Novalis is the only SRS/SRT machine in the market that can safely deliver Dynamic Shaped Beam Surgery (dynamic arc). Please save the AVI file “mlc 400x300 Cinepak 12fps 300kbs.avi” in the same folder as this powerpoint for animation.
  5. iPlan RT Dose offers a wide range of tools for treating various indications. Circular arc treatments utilize conical collimators to deliver a spherical dose with a sharp dose fall off, ideal for small spherical mets or functional indications such as trigeminal neuralgia. Conformal beam treatments consist of multiple static beams each with a fixed MLC position based on the shape of the target, ideal for wedged tumors where arcs would hit too many critical structures or for some extracranial targets. Dynamic conformal arcs provide a treatment in which the gantry rotates about the patient and as the gantry rotates, the MLC shapes to the target dynamically. Dynamic arc treatments are used in most cranial treatments with the benefit of normal tissue sparing and increased conformity to the target. IMRT treatments have static beams with dynamically moving MLCs which are used to selectively block dose or deliver dose in particular areas based on the prescription constraints. IMRT is used when you are concerned with sparing adjacent critical structures such as the spinal cord. Finally, our newest delivery technique is HybridArc. HybridArc is an automated blending of enhanced Dynamic Conformal Arcs (modulated arcs) and static IMRT fields.
