Area of Science:

  • Medical Physics
  • Radiotherapy
  • Dosimetry

Background:

  • Anatomic variations in radiotherapy pose significant challenges.
  • Accurate dose delivery requires accounting for interfraction and intrafraction motion.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Develop a novel deformable gel dosimeter for accurate dosimetry in moving targets.
  • Enable direct measurement of integrated doses in deformed states.
  • Verify dose deformation algorithms.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a modified nPAG polymer gel (DEFGEL) as a deformable phantom.
  • Simulated deformation using an acrylic compressor and implanted fiducial markers.
  • Delivered radiation in static, deformed, and cumulative states.
  • Readout doses using cone beam optical CT.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated reproducible deformation of the DEFGEL phantom.
  • Observed significant spatial redistribution of dose due to target deformation.
  • Identified dose discrepancies up to 30% of maximum dose in stereotactic fields.

Conclusions:

  • First use of a tissue-equivalent, 3D dose-integrating deformable phantom.
  • Methodology provides 3D dosimetric data for deformed and undeformed states.
  • System validates dose distribution changes and can evaluate absorbed doses in deformable targets.
