Abstrakt: | Purpose: Optic nerves are part of the craniospinal irradiation (CSI) target volume. Modern radiotherapy techniques achieve highly conformal target doses while avoiding organs-at-risk such as the lens. The magnitude of eye movement and its influence on CSI target- and avoidance volumes are unclear. We aimed to evaluate the movement-range of lenses and optic nerves and its influence on dose distribution of several planning techniques. Methods: Ten volunteers underwent MRI scans in various gaze directions (neutral, left, right, cranial, caudal). Lenses, orbital optic nerves, optic discs and CSI target volumes were delineated. 36-Gy cranial irradiation plans were constructed on synthetic CT images in neutral gaze, with Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy, pencil-beam scanning proton therapy, and 3D-conventional photons. Movement-amplitudes of lenses and optic discs were analyzed, and influence of gaze direction on lens and orbital optic nerve dose distribution. Results: Mean eye structures' shift from neutral position was greatest in caudal gaze; -5.8±1.2 mm (±SD) for lenses and 7.0±2.0 mm for optic discs. In 3D-conventional plans, caudal gaze decreased Mean Lens Dose (MLD). In VMAT and proton plans, eye movements mainly increased MLD and diminished D98 orbital optic nerve (D98 Conclusion: With modern CSI techniques, eye movements result in higher lens doses and a mean detriment for orbital optic nerve dose coverage of <10% of prescribed dose.
