The dose of the initial plan (plan1) was projected to CT2 and CT3 using the image registration technique to obtain the projection plans (plan1– 2 and plan1– 3) and by superimposing the doses to obtain the ART plans (plan10+20 and plan20+10), respectively. The dosimetric differences in the target volume and organs at risk (OARs) were compared between the projection and adaptive plans. The tumor control probability (TCP) for the planning target volume (PTV) and normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) for the OARs were compared between the two adaptive plans.Results: Compared with the projection plan, the D2 to the PTV of ART decreased, the conformity index (CI) to the PTV increased, and the D2/Dmean to the brainstem, optic chiasm and pituitary, as well as the V20, V30, V40 and V50 to the normal brain decreased. The D2 to the pituitary and optic chiasm as well as the V20, V30, V40 and V50 to the normal brain in plan10+20 were lower than those in plan20+10, while the CI to the PTV was higher than that in plan20+10. The TCP of the PTV in plan10+20 was higher than that in plan20+10.Conclusion: ART can improve the precision of target volume irradiation and reduce the irradiation dose to the OARs in high-grade glioma. The time point after 10 fractions of RT is appropriate for ART.Keywords: adaptive radiotherapy, high-grade glioma, dosimetry, biophysical model |
