| Popis: | Introduction: Previous studies comparing tomotherapy (TOMO) and three dimensional (3D) conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) in gastric radiotherapy are limited and tend to be based on dosimetry. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of these two treatment modalities. Methods: A total of 51 patients diagnosed with gastric cancer who were treated with postoperative adjuvant chemoradiotherapy and had subtotal/total gastrectomy and D2 lymphatic dissection were recruited to the present study: 30 patients were treated with TOMO and 21 patients were treated with 3DCRT. Results: The 3DCRT and TOMO treatment regimens were compared. There was no difference in planning target volume (PTV) 95%, but TOMO was statistically significant in regard to PTV 105% (P |
