Physico-dosimetric planning in stereotactic radiation therapy for pancreatic cancer

Abstract

Stereotactic radiotherapy is a relatively new development in the field of radiation therapy. Dosimetric planning of this type of radiation treatment has its own specifics. Specialized three-dimensional planning of RT allows achieving a high dose inside the target and a high dose gradient outside the target. The results of a comparison of two methods for physico-dosimetric planning of radiotherapy sessions with modulation of the intensity of the photon beam of patients with pancreatic cancer are presented.
