IMRT 3D QA假體劑量驗證是將劑量計置於假體內空腔,在進行放射治療之前,藉由實際測量假體接收劑量來驗證治療計畫計算劑量,是IMRT放射治療品質管制之有效利器,因此許多報告都鼓勵以多種假體劑量度量,來更加確認IMRT放射治療劑量。假體劑量驗證最常使用的劑量計為游離腔、熱發光劑量計(thermoluminescence dosimeters, TLD)與X光底片,本實驗選擇游離腔、MOSFET劑量計與X光底片為度量工具,提供這3種劑量計在臨床使用上之校正經驗,並在實際驗證劑量之前,考慮可能影響假體劑量計讀值之各種參數,如照野均勻性、測量深度與假體材質等,一一在假體上量測,並在假體劑量驗證時予以修正。
選擇頭頸部治療之鼻咽癌病患,在進行劑量驗證之前時,將先IMRT 3D QA假體進行電腦斷層影像掃描,將所取得的影像,與原先病人的影像做置換,經過電腦重算劑量後,取得該待測驗證點之劑量值。然而假體材質與量測深度,並非當初校正治療機器時之位置與材質,故假體中劑量的換算上仍須經過校正。參考美國醫學物理師協會(American Association of Physicists in Medicine , AAPM)所發表之Task Group 21”光子在假體中劑量測定流程”,直接用實驗的方式將假體材質與深度誤差予以校正。
以游離腔劑量計與MOSFET劑量計分別量測了5個照野,分別屬於同一個病患。以游離腔劑量計度量的結果,有1照野的腫瘤劑量誤差大於2%的處方劑量,所有照野的劑量誤差則有-3.92%;以MOSFET劑量計量測假體劑量,結果有1照野的劑量大於3%的治療計畫劑量,而所有之劑量誤差都少於5%。
檢討整個治療流程,發現除了假體位置的差異外,系統誤差(systematic error)可能來自於假體不均質(inhomogeneity)與假體厚度之影響。除此之外,某些射束劑量計度量之結果誤差略比電腦計算劑量大,一一分析後,發現除了劑量計本身之不穩定外,劑量計之誤差亦可能來自於,劑量驗證點落在低劑量區域,其讀值將有明顯差異,因此也造成IMRT治療計畫在假體驗證上之不確定性。
經由本實驗可建立一套包括校正劑量計、修正假體條件與實際劑量測定之完整IMRT劑量驗證方式,經由誤差分析瞭解驗證流程中可能發生誤差之程序,在進行劑量驗證工作時應特別注意,以避免劑量誤差來達到品質保證之目的。
